What's On in Friday Harbor

Use our pottery wheels or our slab roller to make a platter and decorate it with the sgraffito surface design technique. In this class, participants will have the option to use the wheel to throw a form of their choosing or use our slab roller to make a slab-based vessel. We will then paint on slip or underglaze and learn about the sgraffito surface design technique. Students will carve out their image onto thier forms, with encouragement to create images that tell a story or share a feeling or message. This class is for anyone interested in creating a functional ceramic object with imagery on it! Artists with wheel experience and artists new to ceramics will have different options appropriate to their needs in this class.
