Ceramic Sculpture Art Course

This six-week ceramic sculpture course is ideal for beginners and experienced makers alike who want to explore or advance their skills in ceramic sculpture. Blending ceramic technique, theory, and creative practice so you can make the ceramic projects you want to make, in a relaxed and encouraging environment.

I host a mix of new and returning participants, where we begin with a formal, guided lesson to build foundational skills and knowledge. From there, I draw on a wide range of techniques and tailor each lesson to support you as you create your own projects.

Over the course of the term, you'll create, and then hand-paint, 1–6 ceramic pieces using coloured underglaze. I'll then apply a clear glaze to each piece, and your finished works will be ready for collection within 2–4 weeks.

Two hours sessions, once a week, for six weeks
- Multiple hand building techniques for ceramic sculpture
- Tailored lessons for the skills you need to learn to make the projects you want to make
- Ceramic painting with coloured slips
- Everything you need to know to start or extend a practice of ceramic sculpture; theory, technique, creative development support
