Welcome to ceramics
Throughout this course students will be working with hand building techniques. We will start with soft-slab mugs, move through pinch pots as well as coil pots. If time allows, we will even attempt the potters wheel. As a final project, we will be making head sculptures, combining the hand building techniques.

Weekly sketchbook assignment
While it may be a ceramics class, sketches are still at the heart of communication and therefore are still an essential part. At the beginning of each week, two drawings will be due at the start of the block. If you forget to bring your work in, you have an opportunity at the start of class on the second day of the week to turn in the sketch for up to half credit. Beyond that, you will not be allowed to turn them in for credit.
