Collage with clay: Combining thrown and hand-built elements

Working with a red stoneware clay Amanda-Sue will share how she plans, designs and creates her vessels as well as how she achieves different qualities of surface through mark-making with tools and brushed-on washes of oxides and stains.

Students will explore how they can work with multiple, contrasting clay elements to infuse a new expressive dimension to their work. Constructing with multiple elements also offers up the opportunity to increase the scale, especially for tall and narrow forms.
