Glaze Day
Do you find the whole process of glazing the main stumbling block in the studio?
This may be the day that changes your view on glazing forever!
This is a full day workshop aimed at the intermediate potter, you are not alone if you find it all a bit daunting. Tutor Clair Robinson will cover the whole process of preparing, mixing, and getting the glaze hydrolytically accurate.
It’s a hands-on experimental day, trying different techniques and methods for applying glazes to pots. Bisque ware will be provided, however you are welcome to bring along your own stoneware pots.
*Please note : this workshop is aimed at the intermediate potter, not beginners.
