Handbuilding with Clay 4-week Course
Create your own hand built clay forms inspired by nature as you slow down, reconnect and recharge!
Join us for a four-week course beginning the 29th of October 2020, on Thursday’s 10:00 am – 12.30pm.
The classes will be run over four weeks in the bushland scenery at Eramboo Artist Environment on the edge of Ku-ring-gai National Park!
Be guided by local artist Eleanor Amiradaki in creating a series of beautiful Clay Small Vessels inspired by the natural forms found in nature (perfect for Christmas gifts!)
Students will sketch ideas and compositions, learn foundational handbuilding techniques, create texture/markings with found objects from nature and apply their own simple glazes.
Suitable for beginners and anyone wanting to recharge, connect and slow down!
