As temperatures cool and the leaves change into their brilliant fall palette, let’s settle into the change of seasons! In this class, the focus will be on forms and colors that evoke that cozy feeling. We’ll explore hand-building and wheel throwing techniques while creating pieces that resonate with autumn and the transition to winter. As we approach the holiday season, we’ll explore various types of two- and three-dimensional ornaments. Throughout the session, hand-painting and carving techniques will be introduced. Hand-building experience is not required. Intermediate to advanced experience in wheel throwing with solid abilities to center, pull, and shape forms is required. Experience on the wheel making lidded and closed forms will be helpful in this class. Adults aged 18 and over.
