Upcoming workshop with Yoko Sekino-Bove

Learn how Yoko creates intriguing and layered surfaces through her techniques for working on a wet clay surface, including sgraffito, carving, and underglaze painting. She will also demonstrate how she creates her own stamps, combines different surfacing techniques, and paints with glazes to create a unique appearance. Yoko will introduce the tools, materials, and process she uses as well as the cone 5/6 oxidation glaze formulas she fires with. If you are interested in adding more details to your pots or sculptures, this is a perfect indoor adventure to explore at home!

BIPOC and need-based scholarships available; please email [email protected] for details.
