What You Will Learn?
- In this class we'll be learning how to throw, shape, and put handles on three basic mug shapes. Using one pound of clay we'll make a cylinder, a cone, and a funnel shaped mug. Then pull handles for each and attach them, going over how to do each task efficiently and effectively. While also covering the tools required and how to prepare. My goal with this class is to help others get a better understanding of how to make a mug, and demonstrate what can be accomplished with basic skills on the wheel, and also communicating the aesthetic properties that make a mug nice to look at, and to use..
