About the class: Students will learn handbuilding clay techniques as they create a village themed lantern or candle holder. Basic clay joining skills will be taught by potter Molly Angel via demonstration and examples. Students will get a hands on clay experience. The clay projects will be transported to Molly's home studio to be fired and brought back for the 2nd class to be painted with underglaze. Then the projects will be transported and fired a second time and returned for students to pick up at Art Place. Let this fun project ignite your creativity through texture, form and design! Note: You may want to bring a sketch book to work out your design ideas. Also bring a lunch since our class time is 11-2.
Experience: No experience needed.
Supplies: Supplies will be provided.
About the instructor: I’ve been creating for as long as I can remember. There was never a time when I decided to become an artist; I just always was one. My work is informed by an affinity for fiber arts and surface design that I developed in college. This appealed to me because I am innately drawn to line, color, and pattern for their own sake as much as tools in the artist’s kit. Realism does not tempt me but I would offer a surreal and unique lens to view the world. I’ve been influenced by the work of Spanish folk artist Juan Romero Fernandez, contemporary painters Este McCleod and Sue Davis, and many others. Pottery has been a long love relationship. I learned to throw a pot on the wheel at age 17 and have never stopped enjoying it. Functional pottery has both challenged and rewarded me as I am always honing forms and glazes and designs. Whether painting or printmaking or fiber arts, I find inspiration in the world around me, in ideas I see and read and feel. My creativity springs forward as a treasured inheritance from the Creator in whose image I live and move and have my being.
