109 First Avenue North
Altered Vessels Workshop w/Gelindo L. Ferrin. July 9th & 10th, 3-6p.
Whether you are beginning to explore clay or have some experience, this 2 – day workshop will give you several basic ideas and demo examples of ways to alter the forms you make, either wheel-thrown or hand-built, with different surface decoration options and/or forming your clay projects with simple tools and techniques. The first day will be spent planning and making and the second will be spent building, trimming and finishing your projects. You will take home 2- 3 projects depending on your style.
Bio:
My work has been inspired by the materials and tools available to me, natural environments, and what the materials allow. My style is rather loose, and with a little planning it is always exciting to see what comes forth from the clay and other materials at hand. I am now in the process of reconstructing a creative environment at home after teaching in public education for nearly 30 years. I recently sold my public studio on Bainbridge Island and look forward to doing workshops, teaching and doing demos for creative enrichment. rollingbayclay.com
