Description
Join Gippsland-based ceramic artist Cindy Tong for a hands-on 1-day workshop, where you’ll learn the art of carving through coloured slip to reveal striking patterns and designs in clay. This full-day workshop will guide participants through surface preparation, design planning, slip application and carving techniques using a range of tools.
Cindy will share her personal approach to Sgraffito, including tips for achieving fine detail and thoughtful composition. All materials and tools will be provided. No prior experience is necessary – this workshop is perfect for beginners and ceramicists looking to explore new surface decoration techniques.
Each participant will practice on test tiles in the morning and then in the afternoon create a carved ceramic platter, which will be clear glazed and kiln-fired after the workshop, ready for collection 3-4 weeks after the workshop. Each participant will also receive a detailed workbook, with descriptions and pictures of the techniques, to take home.
Bring your own patterns or designs to experiment with – botanical, animals, anything.
