A poem, a lemon, a rock: generating new ideas on the potter's wheel

A poem, a lemon, a rock: generating new ideas on the potter's wheel

$145.00

The wheel is mesmerizing, challenging, takes practice, and is fun. If you have a little experience of this, and maybe a fairly regular studio practice, maybe you’ve found that in pursuit of ‘better’ pots it’s easy, on the wheel, to become repetitive, to adopt a strict routine & stick to certain ‘favorite’ forms.

As the season changes, we are delighted to welcome Molly Altman back to the studio to offer a 3-hour wheel workshop emphasizing creativity & coming up with ideas. How to keep evolving - how to make personal, surprising, new pots? 

How about starting with a prompt - a poem or a lemon - and using this to take your wheel-throwing in a new direction? The workshop will begin with time for looking at an array of provided prompts, physical forms and other things, then doing some sketching or note-taking. Lots of worktime & guided practice on the wheel will wrap up with a bit of time for discussion at the end.

Bring a notebook & your enthusiasm for the changing season & the quest for new ideas in the clay studio.
