Drawing the Line: Utilitarian Pots is a juried exhibition featuring ceramic functional pots. The work chosen must be crafted into a vessel and equally address the surface as a three-dimensional canvas. The use of line is an important element in the consideration of the chosen work. The works maybe marked with abstraction and/or representation. The purpose of this exhibition is to present the various ways that contemporary potters deal with surface design in conjunction with form. The exhibition will be held at the University of Arkansas’ Fine Arts Center Gallery from November 29- December 17, 2010. The exhibition is open to everyone. There is a twenty-five dollar fee for up to three entries.

Decorating Techniques – green and bisque ware: August 6th. This workshop covers a variety of surface treatments which can be carried out on both green ware and bisque-fired ware. Among the techniques covered are a number of resist methods, etching on raw clay, underglaze and majolica, stamping, a new method of tube lining, sponging and banding. You will also be shown how to make your own underglazes, majolica colours and ceramic crayons.
Creating a Professional Image: September 3. Are you doing enough to get your name and your work in the public eye? In this session we will look at various ways of how to go about promoting yourself and your work without outlaying large amounts of money. Also discussed will be the importance of creating your ‘brand’ and where to position yourself in the market.
Paperplaster; the mould making revolution: October 29th. The revolutionary paperplaster method has changed my approach to mould making forever. Introduced to me by Sandra Black as taught by Trudy Golley this is an excellent introduction to basic mould making as well as a great new method for those more experienced in this area. This method uses much less plaster than is usually used for mould making resulting in lighter easier to manage moulds. I will also be demonstrating and doing my best to take the mystery out of slip casting.
