Textured Coil Pots
About Debbie
Picture
Further Detail
Debbie will guide you through the designing of your pots- showing you examples and images by potters, ancient and modern. She will demonstrate how to form the coils and how to join them together.  Once your pots have been taken shape, Debbie will show you ways to use texture to decorate the clay surface, by using an array of tools, stamps, fabrics and plant material. The aim will be to make 2 medium size vessels.
Debbie will fire and glaze your work with a glaze of your choice, and return completed work to Ardington for collection, in approximately 5-6 weeks.
