Five days of clay making in which we will construct sculptural & functional pieces, with a sixth day for glazing at a later date (to be arranged with the group). Suitable for beginners as well as the more advanced, the course covers all the hand building techniques. Using a variety of clays & decorating materials we will achieve interesting & exciting results. The venue will be Jane’s studio in the pretty hamlet of Waterstock, just off the M40 Wheatley 5 miles east of Oxford.
