3 Day throwing stoneware: Jeremy Steward
This course is ideal for beginners, but offers opportunity for makers across all levels of ability to improve upon their range of skills and techniques in thrown stoneware. More experienced makers will have the opportunity to improve upon specific aspects of their throwing, turning and handling. On the third day of the course students may wish to experiment with raw-glazing and various methods of slip-decoration. A small selection of the very best pieces which have been slipped and glazed within the duration of the course can later be gas salt-fired. Any unfinished pieces can be taken home or will be biscuit-fired at Wobage for you to collect at a later date. A charge will be made in addition to the course fee for fired pots: £1.00/lb for biscuit and £2.50/lb for gas salt-glaze.
The studio invites a maximum of 8 students for this course. Each participant will enjoy unlimited access to a power wheel for the full duration. These are a selection of different models; Rayefco, Alsager and Shimpo.
The course begins at 10am on the first morning, completing at 4pm on the last day. Tuition hours are otherwise 9am – 5pm. Morning and afternoon refreshments are included in the price of this course along with our home-baked sourdough loaves for lunch. Students will be asked to bring along a small lunchtime savoury dish to share.
