All Levels* $120-$170 Materials and Studio Fees**
This fast-paced workshop taught by Pattie Chalmers will focus on the dance between ceramic surface and form. Chalmers will lead with instruction in handbuilding forms using coiling, pinching, slab, and slumping, then follow by sharing methods of creating imagery and decorating that can be used on either pottery or sculpture. Approaches will include low-tech printmaking techniques, sgraffito, slip trailing, and stencils, along with creating and using simple sprig molds and stamps to develop a variety of moves to use in your own studio practice. This workshop is for anyone who is ready to experiment with choreographing something new in their studios.
*Beginners are welcome, but advanced students will not feel underwhelmed.
**Materials and studio fees are charged to students based on studio usage and materials Touchstone is providing at the request of the instructor. Additionally, some instructors may also require that you bring certain materials and tools with you, in which case a list will be provided. Final cost of these fees will be posted at least two weeks ahead of the workshop to be paid in full prior to check-in.
