This video demonstrates how Ann created her popular Frog Mug. This is an easy project that does not require a wheel and utilizes basic pottery tools. Please also check out Ann’s Video Workshop Series. These workshops are very detailed (typically 1.5 – 2 hours in length) and designed to help potters take their work to new levels of craftsmanship and artistry. https://vimeo.com/showcase/6725318

technical tuesday: Woodfiring Workshop at River Song Pottery

by | Jun 30, 2020 | technical tuesday

This short film is about a woodfiring workshop I participated in at River Song Pottery in October of 2019, which was led by Amy Song and Jon Pacheco. Over the course of the four-day workshop, we applied glazes, slips, and wadding to our bisqueware, loaded the train kiln with a couple hundred pieces, and stoked the kiln through its multi-day firing cycle. The workshop proved incredibly informative, was full of laughs, and brought together many wonderful artists from the greater Chicago area. I feel incredibly grateful to have had this opportunity, and hope you enjoy this short video!

technical tuesday: Underglaze Tutorial – Opaque and Watercolor Techniques

by | Apr 21, 2020 | technical tuesday

This video is a step-by-step guide to using underglazes to add an illustrative design to your ceramics. I’ll show you how to create solid, opaque images as well as how to create watercolor techniques using underglazes. In this video I draw and paint flowers and whales onto a wheel thrown vase. Underglaze is my favorite way of decorating my pots! I love getting lost in the intricacies of the design and the repetition of the layering. It is not uncommon for a single pot to take me several days and even weeks to underglaze. The watercolor technique not only makes a beautiful design, it also significantly cuts down the span of time it takes to finish the underglaze because it does not require as many precise layers. This is my first video tutorial for clay and so I truly hope you enjoy it and will give me feedback! Happy Day!
