Cheerful Surfaces Workshop with Jason Bige Burnett

“Cheerful surfaces and simple forms are an intentional invitation to engage my pottery. I compose layers of color and pattern, bringing together stained and burnished surfaces to suggest an emotional duality between happiness and despair.” …Jason Bige Burnett

In this workshop, explore vibrant illustrative surface techniques for your ceramics. Focusing on image and stencil development through doodling, drawing and screen printing processes. Add color images to your clay surfaces by using newspaper and slip transfers. Demonstrations will cover traditional and non-traditional techniques that embellish ceramic surfaces.

This hands on activity will cover image development, surface embellishment and decal manipulation.
