Intermediate – Advanced | TBD Materials and Studio Fees*
Discover the delicate art of wheel-throwing exquisite porcelain forms, which are then altered, trimmed, and carved to resemble blooming flowers. Stacy will share her intricate stone-setting techniques as she adorns her vessels by embedding stones directly into the clay. We will discuss the creative process of design development and explore sophisticated forms through aesthetic proportions, curvilinear profiles, and captivating volume. Demonstrations will include, but are not limited to, creating cups, bowls, plates, and vases. Participants are encouraged to bring in photos of flowers to use as inspiration.
Prerequisites: Competency in throwing basic forms on the wheel
