Ceramics Workshop: Sandy Blain – Handbuilding: Developing Forms & Surfaces

by Vicki Hardin on June 28, 2011

Sandy Blain, Pier One Tankard,
stoneware, 23 x 10-1/2 x 5 in.

Penland School of Carfts
August 28 – September 3, 2011
 

Students in this class will explore personal and expressive work. Handbuilt (pinch, coil, slab, press-mold) and wheel components will be used singly or in combination to construct composite functional or sculptural forms. Surface markings/textures may be developed, altered, or enriched, using additive and/or subtractive processes. Pieces will be bisque-fired only, but we will discuss slips, oxides, and glazes.
