Hand-building:
Methods able to be learnt by handbuilding with clay are:
Pinching (pinch pots), coil, slab, pebbles, sculpture, relief, incising, using hump & slump molds, slip casting (not offered) and, work in combination with pieces made on the wheel.
The extent of pieces able to be made by handbuilding is almost limitless, the main constraints being time, imagination and design integrity.
If you have something specific you'd like to make, please send us an image or a sketch and we will work with you, to the best of our ability, to translate it in clay and bring your concept into fruition.
PLEASE NOTE:
Pottery can be challenging, sometimes on the first few goes, you might not create something you love.
We will do our best to help coach you along the way but the outcomes can sometimes be unpredictable.
