Description
 
In this workshop, you will take your wheel-thrown pieces beyond perfectly smooth and into something far more expressive. Sometimes a pot turns out technically “right” but still feels like it’s missing something—this is where the fun begins. You will embrace the wonky by intentionally altering your thrown forms with dents, twists, waves, dimples, and bold textures.
Experimenting with a wide range of tools and unexpected materials like rope, stamps, sticks, and more to push your pottery in new directions. Even if you’ve taken this workshop before, the creative possibilities are endless, with new ways to twist, reshape, and personalize every piece. This class is perfect for artists who are comfortable centering and throwing cylinders and are ready to take creative risks and make pottery that truly stands out.
