Individual clay modelling workshop is created for adults and children alike. This calming tactile workshop is tailor made depending on your previous experience, therefore suitable for total beginners as well as more advanced students. At the end of the three school hours you will have made one or several items, depending on your experience and preference. The pieces will be left in the studio to dry, will be glazed and fired twice in special ceramic kilns and will be ready for collection in approximately four weeks, depending on the size of your items and the type of clay you used. Alternatively, we can ship your pieces to your home address at a fee.
Individual clay decorating workshops are meant for adults and children alike. You will decorate your own hand-modelled pieces you have made at previous workshop with special ceramic paints called engobes. Allow your imagination to take charge and free your hands to express themselves through drawing and painting clay. After drying, glazing and two firings you can collect your pieces. Alternatively we can ship your pieces to your home address at a fee.
Laura will glaze your pieces in transparent clear glaze. However should you like to experience this part of the process arrange an individualised workshop to glaze your own ceramics. Choose from a selection of about 30 ready made glazes, please book our glazing workshop.
Your glazed items must be kiln fired one more time and you can collect your hand modelled, hand painted glazed item and proudly present it as a gift to a loved one or simply keep it yourself for everyday use or as an original piece of art.
Due to the specific process, glazing workshops are suitable for adults only. However, Laura can glaze kid’s work.
All workshops last 3 school hours (135 minutes), are held indoors or outdoors (with access to warm running water and a toilet in our studio). The prices are per person and include all necessary materials, clays, glazes, engobas, oxides, use of tools and equipment, tuition. Parking is free, as is a selection of teas and coffee. Children must be accompanied by adults.
