Make A Plate
Learn to craft and decorate a handmade plate from start to finish
This workshop has 2 parts. In the first half, we’ll cover the fundamental techniques for hand-building a plate, and I’ll show you how to add your own flair to your shape.
You will then be shown how to paint on your plate using ceramic underglazes. This is the bit where you get to add colour and illustration to your piece. You don't need to be good at drawing to nail this step. Take a look at the Pinterest board I've linked below for some ideas.
At the end of the workshop, I'll take your piece home with me to clear-glaze and fire it. Please allow 6 weeks for this process. Your plate will be available for pickup from Summertown Studio, or for delivery ($15 postage fee).
You'll come away with a unique wall decoration, a special functional piece or a very thoughtful gift.
