I am offering technical courses for potters. With my technical background, I’ve found that I have a deeper knowledge of many of these topics than most potters, and I can distill the information into a more readily understood course.

Face to Face Courses

Line Blends for Glazes – 7 and 28 November, Messums, Chilmark, near Salisbury

On the 7th we spend a full day looking at why line blends are useful and how you can use them to improve your glazes, and at the various approaches you can take to making them. Then you will make up one or more series of tests to be fired. On the morning of the 28th we convene again to look at and discuss people’s results. It is being held at Messums’ brand new workshop space at Chilmark, just west of Salisbury. For full details, and to book, click here.
