In this course, students will gain basic handbuilding and wheel throwing skills. To begin, students will create several handbuilding projects that allow them to practice foundational skills such as: pinching, coiling, and rolling slabs to create forms. Additionally, students will gain knowledge of surface design techniques like: carving, adding texture, sculpting, glazing and underglazing. Over the course of the semester, we will progress into wheel throwing, and learn basic techniques like: wedging, centering, opening, pulling, and trimming, as well as learn how to troubleshoot common problems on the wheel.
