Handbuilding with Colour
Only 10 in stock
Dates and Times: Thursdays 6:30pm - 9:30pm, October 1 - 22, 2026
Location: 1688 Queen Street West
Instructor: Emma Bickers
In our new nerikomi-inspired course, you'll learn how to make your own coloured clay from scratch. Using colour theory as your guide, you'll build a custom palette by mixing ceramic stains directly into your clay.
From there, you'll explore pattern-making techniques including stripes, checks, and inlay. You'll learn how to slice, peel, and reveal your patterns before transforming your coloured clay into finished slab-buillt pieces.
Open to makers of all levels, but some hand-building experience is a benefit.
