We work in a light-flooded artist's studio; sound construction techniques impress with the beauty of imperfection.
Each hand-made ceramic is unique, and it is precisely these irregularities that make it so beautiful.
We work in a light-flooded artist's studio, where you can create your ceramic pieces with your hands and then paint them using the Engobe technique/glazes.
From thumb technique to bead technique, we will try out the techniques together step by step and produce ceramic pieces & if you want, you can use creative texture and surface methods and/or paint your ceramic works of art with the engobe technique before firing them in transparent glaze.
Alternatively, from week 3 (after the scrub firing), you can glaze your ceramic before we fire it twice for you.
