THE PERFECT WAY TO START 2014!
Take your work to the next level by learning creative surface techniques!
Nothing
in pottery shows off your creativity more than a beautiful surface—the
glazes, the patterns, the textures—they all combine to showcase your
imagination. If you’re looking for new ideas that will get your
decorating ideas in super high gear, check out the workshop coming to
Lexington, KY in February. Here you’ll get to watch some of the
country’s most successful potters as they demonstrate their unique
styles to create truly unique surfaces. Sarah Jaeger’s loose organic
brushwork, Kristin Pavelka’s layered sgraffito and slip decoration,
Forrest Lesch-Middleton’s image transfers, and Akira Satake’s rich
surfaces inspired by the natural world are sure to inspire you for years
to come.
