Finished projects are usually fired, but can be cast into plaster or concrete as well. Students will learn how to prepare work for firing, how to do simple waste mold casting and also will be able to experiment with various surface patinas to add color and texture to their fired works. Students of all experience levels are welcome.

Because of its additive and subtractive capabilities, clay is an extremely forgiving and subtle medium, well suited to the needs of beginning, intermediate, and advanced students. Emphasis is on the figure with a half hour of quick sketches (bring your sketchbook) and 2 or 3 sessions will be on the same pose. The goal of the class is to finish 3 or 4 fired terra cotta pieces with the option to plaster cast. All levels of experience welcome.
