Building Zig Zag Vessels
Recording of Live Workshop // $55
This 1.5 hour workshop is focused on making zig zag/geometric vessels using a coil and pinch hand-building technique. Coil and pinch is a fundamental ceramic process, so this is a great class for beginners, intermediate and advanced makers. The technique can be applied to both functional and sculptural forms. I begin with an overview of the fundamentals of coil building including rolling coils and pinching up a wall. The bulk of the demonstration focuses on the components and considerations for coiling compound forms. I address how to achieve clear transitional edges, the importance of timing with coil building, and constructing cantilevered planes.

Building Round Vessels
Recording of Live Workshop // $55
This workshop is focused on making spheres and curvilinear vessels using a coil and pinch hand-building technique. Coil and pinch is a fundamental ceramic process, so this is a great class for beginners, intermediate and advanced makers. I begin with a concise overview of the fundamentals of coil building including rolling coils and pinching up a wall. The bulk of the demonstration focuses on achieving full, generous, curved forms. I introduce a technique of building upside-down that will help you get started. It’s weird, but it works!
