Join Lisa Naples to explore where 2-D meets 3-D making sculptural animal cups! In this 2-hour workshop, Lisa will demonstrate how to make a slab-built mug and alter it to create lively animal imagery. While demonstrating, Lisa will discuss the placement of imagery, the nuances that separate a good mug from a great mug, and how to use slips and underglazes to enhance the sculptural elements of the piece.
You'll learn how to:
Build a cylinder from a flat slab and sketch a two dimensional drawing on the surface!
Push out the walls to accentuate your animal drawing and breathe life into the form!
Add sculptural elements to further enhance the imagery!
Make comfortable lips and handles that make people reach for your mugs again and again!
Use slips and underglazes to add color and detail to your imagery!
And much more!
Event closed.
Registrants can access a recording of the video for 30 days following the event to revisit techniques! (Registrants will be emailed a video link within 48 hours of the webinar conclusion).
Our Workshop from Home webinars are just like in-person workshops, except you are guaranteed a front-row seat! Ask questions throughout, or during the Question & Answer session at the end.
You'll also receive a link to the PDF resource document. Plus, one lucky attendee will win this mug!
