STUDIO AUTONOMY - HOW TO MAKE YOUR OWN GLAZES, RECLAIM YOUR CLAY AND RUN A CERAMICS STUDIO IN GENERAL (online class!)

  • internet New YOrk United States (map)

I get so many people telling me that they are very intimidated by processes in the studio that hold them back from pursuing independent studio work : making glazes, clay reclaim and firing their own pieces for example. I always say that if you can follow a baking recipe, you can make a glaze.

This class is for those of you who want to get deeper into the processes in the ceramic studio but feel a bit intimidated to take the first steps on your own - trust me, if I can do it - you can do it.

I will demo how to reclaim your clay, how to make a glaze and a slip and talk about firing and the different temperatures and give tips in general about how to be an independent clay master of your domain.

*as a note, this is NOT a glaze chemistry class, as I am not a glaze chemist, I just make and tweak glaze recipes and try to make cool things with them. This is about the how to’s of glazing, not the why’s. But that class should happen too, no?
