hybrid handbuilding + wheel

Teacher: Becky Bechthold

In this new 5 session hybrid class, you will learn the basic techniques of throwing pots on the wheel annnnd hand-building! We will make between 3-5 pieces on the wheels, learning the basics of centering and shaping our pots. Next, we will dip our toes in the pond of handbuilding - exploring the three handbuilding techniques of pinch pots, coils, and slabs. We will also explore a variety of surface design techniques, underglaze transfers, and glazing!
