WHAT TO EXPECT...
(...from your typical first lesson)
– “weighing & wedging” – the initial preparation of clay for the wheel
– A demonstration
– At the wheel – you will be given your own wheel and for the duration of the lesson, we will work on:
. the fundamental techniques of throwing
. cutting your pots to expose their cross section and evaluating your work
. how to “wire off”, or, remove pots from the wheel
– Although my lessons are aimed at those who want to learn how to throw, what I hope for the most is that you will have fun!
My lessons are both open to beginners and those who have thrown before. For those who have previous experience, want to focus on specific techniques during a lesson, or, focus on regular progression, please enquire.
Price of a lesson includes all materials and one pot, which I will turn back, bisque fire, glaze and glaze fire in stock white.
Pots will be ready 6 weeks after your session, although, it may be sooner. Postage of pots is an additional £5.
Please wear clothes you don’t mind getting slightly “muddy”, I will provide aprons.
Gift vouchers are available and are valid 12 months from purchase.
Cancellation: please contact me via email, a minimum of 48hrs before your booked lesson in order to reschedule. Cancellation under 48hrs will incur 50% of the lesson cost.
