Surface Decoration: Fall Workshop with Chris Snedden

It is Fall Workshop time again and we are delighted to be hosting Chris Snedden for a Hands-On workshop focussing on surface design.  Chris is an internationally recognized potter and professor of ceramics.  He is also extremely passionate about clay and the work he does.  Have a look at the net and see for yourself.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gx9Vh-LG5dE

In Chris’s words:  ” At the end of the workshop participants will have a greater knowledge of how to use traditional techniques on their work, create their own slip transfers, using various methods, and have some ideas about using them to create either abstract pattern, custom presentation pieces, or subjective narrative or expressive effects on their work”.  Surface design is a hot topic at the moment and we are very fortunate that Chris made time in his extremely busy schedule to come to Thunder Bay and share his techniques with us.

Here is a sample of what we will be learning.  We will let you know about the room for the Friday night lecture when it becomes available.  See you there!!!
