About this class
We create a bowl and work freehand using the roller technique.
With “Time for Two”, you - child and/or adult - can be creative together in a cozy atmosphere on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays! You can come together or you can come “solo” as a child. Adults are also welcome “solo”.
We work in sound; you can create a mythical animal, fantasy creature or even a pirate ship. Bowls, cups, vases and other useful things can be built. We work with both the building roll technique and the pinch or thumb technique; shape, knead and sculpt to your heart's content!
After an appointment, the work will be fired by me after a drying period of approx. 4-6 weeks. Please note that it can take 6 weeks for the work to be picked up. When booking several appointments, major works can be carried out that are suitable to be placed weatherproof in the garden.
What you’ll do in the class
1. Presentation of materials and technology
2. Demonstration of thumb and roll techniques
3. Create a vessel
4. Professional support in implementing your own ideas
(Glaze date: We
are happy to embellish the work with special clay paints (engobes) or shiny color glazes, but this on a second appointment, as the surface treatment has to be fired again. There should be 6 weeks between the initial “production” date and the second “glazing” date. Please arrange a glazing appointment as soon as the production date.)
Who is the class suitable for?
Children aged 4 and over as well as primary school children, young people, families and creative people are welcome to take part in this course.
Child/adolescent/adult: 60 euros
