In this workshop we will use the potter’s wheel to throw a variety of functional and decorative forms.  We will explore direct methods to produce lively surfaces on the pots.  This will include faceting wet pots, applying thick slip for texture, throwing with gesture, rope impressed decoration, incising, and stamping.  Pouring slips and glazes for decorative expression will also be covered.
