1. Basic Hand-Shaping Forms: Demonstration of integrated forming for cylindrical cups and shaping plates. The core value of this hand-building series is "Your Hands Are Your Tools." Pottery doesn't require complex machinery; your hands are all-powerful. We will demonstrate how to shape vessels directly from a ball of clay, exploring the areas and curves your hands can utilize.
2. Narrowing and Widening Practice: Using the pinching techniques learned in the first session to sculpt three-dimensional objects.
3. Object Shaping Control: Applying the cylinder-forming techniques learned previously to create three-dimensional objects and learning how to extend the shape upwards through integrated forming.
4. Glazing Demonstration and Practice: Preparing bisque-fired pieces. Explanation of glazing methods, discussion on piece coloring, and practical demonstration.
Potential Items to Create:
Plates, cylindrical cups, bowls, tapered vases, okra-shaped chopstick rests, cylindrical teapots, sake cups.
