Head Stories - Working Larger Workshop


  • Lisa Naples Studio 24 Bridge St Frenchtown, NJ, 08825 United States (map)

This 4-Day Workshop meets Friday, Saturday and Sunday:
July 24th, 25th and 26th and then again on Friday, July 31st.
Anyone who has taken a workshop with me before or who
has some practical experience in ceramics
is eligible to take this workshop. It is NOT for total beginners.

We will be working on a larger scale than my intro workshop scale
which requires existing skills to build upon. Through the use of hand building
techniques we'll create heads/shoulders in clay. Working in kiln fired paper clay,
I will breakdown the face into sections and give students simple instructions
on how to create facial features.

On days 1, 2 and 3, we’ll concentrate on creating the figure
(which will be bisque fired during the following week).

On the 4th day we will learn underglaze layering techniques
as well as painting facial details onto the bisque fired work.
A glaze firing will finish the work for students to pick up within a few weeks.

The firings, clay, glazes and take-home tutorials are included
in the workshop fee.


If you need your piece shipped to you after the workshop, that can be arranged at cost.
Basic tools are provided by the studio however, a list of additional tools will be emailed to you.
