Using basic-level hand-building skills, participants will learn to create unique garden totem pieces. The course will cover skill building with pinch pots, coils, and slabs. We will explore applied textures, as well as the use of colored slips and glazes to personalize each piece. Participants can expect to have fun while skill-building— leading to an elegant 2’6” piece of art.
