arrow_right_alt arrow_downward- Create your own unique ceramic pieces using hand-building techniques.
- Choose to make pinch pots, decorative tiles, or small bowls while exploring the creative possibilities of working with clay.
- At the end of the session, you'll leave your work at the studio to dry before it is bisque fired and prepared for the Raku workshop. Day two is usually 2-3 weeks from day one.
- During the first half of the workshop, you'll glaze the bisque-fired pieces you created in the previous making session.
- You'll then discover the magic of the outdoor Raku firing process as your work is heated in the kiln and carefully removed while glowing hot.
- Using traditional reduction techniques, smoke and flames create dramatic colours and unique surface effects, making every piece completely one of a kind.
