5 x 2 hours 15 mins Class size 1 to 4     label £190

This course will allow you to confidently create a beautiful piece of work, whether it be sculptural or functional, with no experience necessary!

Over five pottery classes, you will be introduced to a variety of handbuilding techniques, including pinch pots, coil pots, and slab building. You will learn the basics about types of clay and how to work with it to create DIY pottery pieces.

You will be guided by talented teacher Camilla, and the course group will be mixed ability so you can be very experimental. There will also be an option to colour the clay with a variety of slips and tools to add to the surface decoration.

The garden pottery studio you will be working in is the perfect place to learn in a smaller group. You can be sure to receive focused and individual tuition. Come with an idea of what you'd like to make, or Camilla can provide small pottery projects for you.

Hi! I'm Camilla and I will be teaching your classes. I have been teaching for many years now since I graduated from my ceramics degree in 2011. I teach all the basics of hand building ceramics in the classes. Many people like to come back to do the course over and over again once they have got the hang of things and can create whatever they like. The classes and courses are perfect for beginners to learn the methods and build confidence in making with clay.
I have recently moved studios into my garden room and am hoping to build up my student base in my new home of Selhurst/ Croydon.

​There are two parts to my own work; wall installations and more functional vessels. The vessels are an extension of the wall sculptures that were developed over the years to create something more accessible than the large wall installations. The hexagon is a recurring shape in my work, I find it such a satisfying shape to work with and it provides many options for creating different compositions.

My dream has always been to work in a garden studio, and that is now a reality.
