Upcoming Experiences
We will go over how to select clay for using with Raku, talk about and try out naked raku, horeshair raku, slip+paper saggars, plain old american raku, and everyone's favorite Obvara. We are gonna do it all. Or try anyway. A lot of this is new to me as well so we are just gonna go for it and all learn together.
First class will be in the studio to go over all the basics, after that we will just be burning pots outside.
