Wheel Throwing & Sculpting with Sylvia

Class Description

Come and join Sylvia Sinel and have a go at using the pottery wheel to throw different shapes and develop your skills in your hand-building practice. We’ll throw lots of different forms to later use for building and creating magical and quirky sculptures. To get the most out of this class you don't have to be an expert in wheel throwing but semi confidence is recommended. You’ll get a lot of wheel exercise in the process, so you will most likely end up a better thrower afterwards, no matter current skill level. Sylvia is a ceramic artist and sculptor who has recently relocated to the area. She often uses wheel thrown pieces in her sculptural work.
