Class description

Discover your creative side in the Töpfer Hansebau course.

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.

The large room offers the perfect location for the unique experience of working with sound and creating unique pieces that are made by yourself.

Through direct contact with the material: sound, it has a relaxing effect and, with your vital powers, is the ideal balance against everyday stress. Working with clay works through, kneading, sculpting, gluing, sculpting and relaxing.

You will create, knead, feel, shape, glue, model unique ceramic pieces that release your individual experience with clay.

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. Together, we will model a bowl and a cup by hand.

Afterwards, if you want, we will use the engobe technique together so that you can paint your finished ceramic pieces & we can burn them to a transparent shine for you after the bisque fire!

We have ceramic engobe available in different colors, including cannulas, so that you can - sign on your ceramic.

The course is ideal for beginners and anyone who has already gained experience with the material sound.

After the course, we will have to let your pieces dry out properly for you, put them in the scrub fire and then glaze them for you. The finished ceramic can then be picked up from our studio after approx. 2-3 weeks later. We will inform you about this via email. 
On request, we can also send your great unique items for an additional charge.

Please bring old clothes or aprons so that you can really get started and of course lots of fun and joy, because there is nothing wrong in this workshop, everything is unique because you are unique,
