This course is led by our experienced tutor, Ekaterina, who will guide you through each stage of the process. This six week course is designed for those who already feel comfortable on the wheel and are ready to build confidence, develop their technique, and expand what they can make.
Across the sessions, you’ll explore research, design, and experimentation while developing the skills needed to create more complex forms. You’ll learn how to throw a range of vessels, including bottle shapes, larger plates, bowls, and jugs, and discover different methods for attaching handles. The course will also introduce more specialised trimming techniques to help you refine and finish your work with care.
In the final session, you’ll move into surface decoration, using underglazes and glazes to paint and personalise the pieces you’ve made over the previous five weeks. By the end of the course, you’ll have a small collection of finished vessels! And intermediate throwing techniques.

Over the 6 weeks, each participant will make at least one handled cup/mug and one tea bowl/handleless cup.
