The 3 day specialised workshop introduces you to the tactile hand building techniques of pinching and coiling. We start with exploration of the physical properties of the clay through playful experimentation, helping the student to know and feel the clay's possibilities and limits. Emphasis is very much on process, trial and error, so that by the end of the course, you will learn competent core skills in pinching and coiling, and be more aware of the possibilities of working in this way.

Individual guidance is given throughout. Workshops include frequent demonstrations on technique, form and surface treatment, and an insight into her own making and philosophy. The larger Harley Pottery provides a friendly and nurturing environment to enable each student to feel comfortable and get the most from their stay.

A small group ensures everyone has sufficient personal tuition and working space. Refreshments throughout the day. Suitable for those with some previous experience.
