+
SATURDAY, APRIL 12 (1:00-3:00pm)
ABOUT:
Need a touch of gold on your piece? Want a mother-of-pearl shine on that pot for your mother? How about adding a silver lining to those underglaze clouds?
These one-day workshops invite you to level up your finished pieces with luster overglazes.
*Workshop is contingent on the weather as we will apply the luster in the Arts League backyard to minimize fumes. Rain date TBD
WHAT TO BRING:
4-6 ceramic pieces of your choice that have been glaze fired to at least cone six (glossy surfaces work best!)
Respirator face mask with dust/fume attachment highly recommended!
WHAT’S INCLUDED:
High quality luster overglazes (gold, silver, mother of pearl and perhaps a few surprises…)
Application instruction and materials
Special “low-and-slow” kiln firing for finished work
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Joanna Birkner is a potter making ceramic jewelry, décor and functional tableware in west Philadelphia.
