(registration ends Feburary 15th)
The Clayer, Part Two: Surface Patterns
& Molds will be an a new take on surface and form. Part two will
focus less on drawing and more on creating patterns and rich textures on
our clay surfaces and making exciting pieces using the techniques you
learn in the ecourse. Together we will make simple plaster molds, carve
intricate patterns into clay to create bisque press molds that we will
use to give us deliciously textured surfaces. We will cut paper into
shapes and learn how to create multiple colored stencil patterns. Diana
will also teach a water abrasion technique for more precise relief work
and, also, how to combine all of these techniques together, to create
pattern rich dynamic pieces, that celebrate your personal style and
voice. Throughout the e-course, Diana will also include weekly
inspiration days where she shares interesting things
she discovers, to keep your brains humming with ideas and your creative
juices flowing. She’s also been known to throw in a recipe or two, of
something she’s been cooking, share some music she is listening to and
talk about her own journey as a Clayer, as well. The ecourse setting
will be a warm and safe, no pressure, work at your own pace,
environment, where we share what we make and learn with other
participants and positive feedback is encouraged. It’s so much fun, you
will learn so much and meet other Clayers from around the world. Are
you a ready for Part Two, Clayers?

Pure and Not-so-Simple: Ceramics Masterclass with Kirsten Coelho
Come and be inspired by one of Australia’s exciting and successful
ceramic artists! Kirsten Coelho is an award-winning ceramic artist
who works in porcelain, producing reduction fired works that attempt to
fuse the formal and the abstract.
More recently her work has been influenced by nineteenth and early
twentieth century enamel wares and and the abstracted surface
possibilities these objects can show as they begin to age.
Kirsten Coelho trained in Adelaide at the South Australian School of
Art before moving to the UK in the early 1990’s where she worked for a
number of years in a London Studio.
Since returning to Australia in 1998, Kirsten Coelho has been a
studio tenant at the JamFactory Centre for Contemporary Craft and Design
and completed a Master of Visual Art at the South Australian School of
Art . Kirsten now works from a studio at her home in Adelaide, South
Australia. She was winner of the 2012 Sidney Myer Ceramics Award and is
represented by galleries in London, US and Australia.
Her Masterclass at Slow Clay Centre will be a one-day demonstration
and discussion-based class where participants will be able to access
Kirsten’s considerable expertise and knowledge about porcelain, working
on the potter’s wheel, glazing and building a career in ceramics! All
welcome, no prior experience necessary!
