Throwing Course at West Dean Sussex


  • West Dean Co Sussex United Kingdom (map)

Starting with the preparation of the clay to the throwing process and all its details, this course aims to raise confidence in creating complex forms. Throwing curved forms with accentuated necks and strong curves, you will focus on the proportions and composition of the shoulder, belly, base and neck of each piece. Further skills showing how to alter thrown shapes into ovals and squares will also be taught.

You will then learn how to turn pieces to adjust forms and refine the shapes of leather-hard vessels.

Your tutor will give multiple demonstrations throughout the workshop and you will receive individual attention.

You will receive a one-to-one analysis of your way of working and coaching to achieve your personal goals.
