MARCH 4wk Course : The Cylinder, The Sphere and The Cone.
This course is designed for previous students of mine who are wanting to learn more!
Refreshing our techniques previously learned from the beginner workshop will start us off. Moving forward to our focused shapes; cylinders, spheres and cone vessels. Each day we will focus on one of these shapes. As a means to further understand the fundamental structures of blown forms. Honing our skills and refining throughout the day. Our goals will be, how to make each of these shapes and how to apply new color designs. All while having tons of fun!
