This workshop is focused on developing the necessary skills to build a plaster mold of your work. The student is asked to bring with them a "master" piece of ceramic work at the leather hard stage. Preferably something that will require more than a simple two piece mold. Alternatively, you can bring a found object that you might like to make a mold from.
All equipment and plaster will be provided. There will also be a demonstration on how to use your molds.
If you have questions about how to prepare for this workshop, or need clarification on what ceramic piece or found object is suitable for making a mold, please contact David.
Maximum: 5 places.
