Hands On Workshops to be held at Craft In The Bay
Exploring Surface Decoration in Clay
Tutor: Morgen Hall
Times: 11am - 5pm
Cost: £140
A fantastic opportunity to develop specialist pottery skills in slip decoration and slab building.
Morgen wil begin this course with a powerpoint presentation of her work. An established artist, Morgen creates wonderful tableware in porcelain and tin glazed red earthenware. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally and has pieces in many collections including the National Museum of Wales and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.
On day one students will be given two pieces of porcelain tableware 'blanks' to apply waterslide transfers to the surface. You will also be able to apply liquid water based enamel colours using different techniques, including latex resist.
Whilst this work is being fired you will create your own clay slabs and on day 2, explore various ways of applying coloured slips, including marbling, feathering, trailing and printing.
Morgen will have prepared vinyl stencils based on your own designs. You can then apply your stencils to the clay slabs to create positive & negative designs and embossed patterns on the clay surfaces. After removing the stencils from the clay slabs, the stencils can be washed and taken home for use on future works.
Day 3 will look at slab building using the previous days work. Each student will create a three dimensional slab built form. Further surface details will then be applied to the slab forms using mono printing and creating embossed edges with roulette wheels. Work will be left at Craft in the Bay to dry and be fired. (please allow 2 weeks before collecting your work).
At the end of day 3 the kiln will be unloaded and the porcelain transfer decorated work from day 1 will be returned to you to take home.
Friday 29 February – Sunday 20 April 2008

An exhibition presenting the work of leading makers who integrate digital processes into their craft practice showing work that describes the route from concept to finished object by ‘laying bare’ the design and making process and the computer based applications used.
Innovative and progressive work in furniture, wood, jewellery, metal, textiles and ceramics will show how the interface with the computer helps to form and shape the individuals work.
Developed by The Devon Guild of Craftsmen and Innovate Centre of Expertise for the Creative Industries, University of Plymouth and co-curated by Saffron Wynne, the Devon Guilds’ Exhibitions Officer and Martin Woolner, Director of Innovate.
