Kate Maury workshop

 
May 2, 2015
Columbus, Ohio
One-Day Workshop Featuring Kate Maury
Presented by Mayco and Potters Council 
This workshop will present handbuilt and
thrown functional ware with both commercial and hand made sprig mold
embellishments. Attendees will have a hands-on demonstration of casting a
one part mold for sprig use. Sprigs will then be explored in a variety
of embellishing techniques on and off wheel in making and assembling
highly decorative functional ware.

technical tuesday: warm throwing water

Thankfully things are coming out of the deep freeze up here in Canada, but I still thought this was a handy tip to share – using a fish tank warmer to keep your throwing water warm on cold days.

Thanks to Jason Bade for sharing the tip on Facebook’s Clay Buddies page.
