The wheel throwing and slip decoration workshop is ideal for your first contact with the potter’s wheel. After the class, you will be able to use these techniques independently and continue moving towards more complex forms in our wheel throwing professionalization course.
We are very proud of our students creations. Visit our Instagram and Facebook pages to see what they’re up to!
How are we going to work:
You will work with an electric wheel
- First you will learn to knead the clay, center the clay, and create the pieces: cylinders, bowls and plates
- Then you will learn to trim your pieces and put handles, feet, etc.
- The last day of the course will be dedicated to decorating them with different techniques: brush, sponge, sgraffito, masking, etc.
- A few days after the workshop, we will glaze and fire your pieces and we will give you a note to come and pick them up. If you don’t live in Barcelona, we will wrap and ship them to you. Please consider this as an additional cost dependent upon your home location.
