You don’t need any prior pottery experience –
ON THE DAY:
I take you through the hand-building techniques, including “pinching” to create the pig body, then forming the ears, nose, legs and finally painting the piggy feet. One of the oldest pottery techniques, “pinching” is using your thumbs and fingers to squeeze and pinch the clay into shape.
AFTERWARDS:
I will then carefully dry, fire, add the pink piggy colour wash and re-fire your animal, before threading it with twine, ready to hang.
The drying and firing processes take a number of weeks to complete. I’ll let you know when your pig is ready for collection (or I can arrange delivery for a small additional charge – please let me know on the day) usually approx 6-8 weeks after your workshop.
This session is not suitable for younger children – please check with me prior to booking to confirm suitability for your young people. Comprehensive school age upwards works best really. All children must be accompanied / supervised throughout. We use some sharp tools.
