CERAMICS 3: INTERMEDIATE

Catalog description

Continue fostering growth in Ceramics studies with attention on variety and definition. Students will practice shaping and attaching formal elements such as feet, handles, lips, spouts, rims, and lids on a variety of forms, produce a set of plates, develop a defined quality of pottery interiors, analyze pottery construction to re-create wares, and participate in group critiques. Students will experiment with advanced finishing techniques such as wash, underglaze, cold finish, slip, and will be challenged to consider deliberate glaze application informed by distinct elements. (Prerequisite: 10-815-201, Ceramics 2: Wheel Throwing with a "C" or better.)
