Master Class: Trimming | SEPTEMBER
September 27 at 3:00 PM
Duration: 3 hours
Would you like to feel more confident when finishing your wheel-thrown ceramic pieces? There’s no better gift you can give yourself than mastering the art of trimming. In this masterclass, Joy Hanford will guide you through the process of centering leather-hard pottery on the wheel and the essential techniques for turning a foot on both cylinder and bowl forms.
Previous experience with the wheel is required.
All skill levels are welcome.
This class does not involve throwing on the wheel. There will be no wet clay work!
Students will be provided with leather-hard pieces to practise trimming during the class.
Students will leave with the skills needed to work independently and with confidence, although no finished pieces will be taken home.
