2302 Sgraffito Workshop with Dodie Campbell

Class - Ceramics | Available

This workshop will help you successfully apply slip, plan out surface composition and carve your designs into the clay. Bring 1-2 hand built or wheel thrown leather hard pieces and any pictures you would like to use for design reference. 

Sgraffito is a pottery decoration technique created by layering color slips on a leather hard ware, then scratching off different layers of slips to create images, patterns, and texture through the contrasting colors between the clay body and color slip(s). Ages 18 +

  • All the leather hard wares bringing to this workshop need to be made from cone 6 clay. A bisque firing will be scheduled after the workshop. A cone 6 glaze firing will be provided once the participants completed glazing.     

  • Each student will need to bring the follow items:
    • 1-2 pieces of handbuilt or wheel thrown leather hard pieces (made from cone 6 clay)
    • carving tools
    • 3 watercolor brushes ranging small to medium in size.
