Combine form and surface in these creative ceramics’ workshops focused on stencil making and clay decoration. Participants will design and cut their own reusable stencils, then explore a variety of application techniques using slips and underglazes to create layered imagery and patterns. After practicing a test tile, you'll apply your designs to a hand-built slab vessel. The workshop will also introduce sgraffito and carving techniques, allowing participants to add depth, texture, and detail to their surfaces. Idea for beginner and experienced ceramic artists looking to create functional pieces of layered surface designs.
