Why learn pottery?
Pottery helps you to express your creativity and it expands how we connect to ourselves and the environment.
The act of creation gives both physical and mental benefits and can have a profound impact on your overall happiness and self-esteem.
Pottery allows you to express yourself in a practice that results in a beautiful object. Making something with your hands helps you relax, and having something you can take home with you serves as a beautiful souvenir of the hours you spent creating.
The workshops I faciliatate are based on hand-building.
Handbuilding is a technique that allows you to create forms with clay and your hands, without using a throwing wheel. Before ceramicists invented the wheel, handbuilding was the only way they could create functional and artistic ceramic forms.
I love handbuilding. I find it extremely mindful and I believe you can create so much from handbuilding plus it allows me to "make it up as I go along!"
