SUMMARY:handbuilding & glazing techniques
DESCRIPTION:Learn handbuilding methods — including pinching\, coiling\, and slab construction — to create functional and sculptural ceramic pieces. This class invites participants to explore the full creative potential of clay through intuitive form-making\, thoughtful craftsmanship\, and a focus on personal expression. Once your pieces are built\, you’ll discover a range of glazing techniques that bring depth\, color\, and texture to your work. From layering glazes and experimenting with surface treatments to achieving unique visual effects\, you’ll learn how finishing transforms form into expression. \nkey learning objectives:\nLearn foundational handbuilding techniques — pinching\, coiling\, and slab work — to create vessels and sculptural forms.\nUnderstand how to combine forms and textures to achieve balance\, proportion\, and structural integrity.\nExplore surface decoration methods\, including carving\, slip application\, and underglaze painting.\nDevelop a strong understanding of glazing principles\, color layering\, and surface experimentation.\nCultivate a personal creative approach that bridges technique with artistic expression. \nwhat to expect:A hands-on\, exploratory course designed to expand your confidence and creativity with clay. Each session begins with guided demonstrations\, followed by ample studio time for individual practice. Participants will create a small collection of handbuilt works — from functional pieces to expressive sculptural forms — and complete them with their own glaze and surface designs. \nThroughout the course\, you’ll receive personalized feedback and technical guidance to refine your skills and bring your artistic vision to life.Studio glazes and tools are provided. No prior experience is required — just curiosity\, creativity\, and a willingness to get your hands dirty.

SUMMARY:sculptural ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an immersive\, hands-on exploration of sculptural ceramics with Laura Ramirez. This intensive workshop delves into form\, volume\, and expression through clay\, guiding participants in transforming functional techniques into bold sculptural statements. Through a contemporary\, process-driven approach\, Laura shares her artistic practice—where material sensitivity\, structure\, and storytelling come together to create expressive ceramic works. \nParticipants will begin with live demonstrations by Laura\, followed by guided individual exploration and experimentation. Students will learn how to construct sculptural forms using hand-building techniques\, develop surface treatments\, and refine composition and balance. Emphasis will be placed on pushing boundaries—moving beyond utility into conceptual and expressive territory. \nBy the end of the program\, participants will have strengthened their sculptural vocabulary\, expanded their technical skills\, and developed greater confidence in creating ambitious\, self-directed ceramic pieces. \nkey learning objectives \nUnderstand the foundations of sculptural ceramics and three-dimensional composition\nDevelop hand-building techniques for expressive\, non-functional forms\nExplore surface\, texture\, and finishing approaches to enhance sculptural impact\nLearn strategies for achieving structural balance and stability\nGain insight into Laura Ramirez’s artistic philosophy and creative process \nwhat to expect \nLive demonstrations by Laura Ramirez\nDaily hands-on sculpting sessions\nIndividual and group critiques\nA supportive\, experimental studio environment\nExploration of scale\, texture\, and abstract form\nConcept development and artistic reflection\nA creatively enriching and transformative workshop experience
