Join Brett Thomas for a day of Raku firing in the beautiful woodland setting of Chester Springs Studio in Historic Yellow Springs. Bring up to five bisque-fired unglazed pots. Raku clay is recommended (available for purchase at the studio) but other clay bodies may be fired. Experience the techniques of contemporary Raku and learn how to use the process of oxidation and reduction to achieve a wide range of colors and textures. Glazing demo, glazes and special supplies are provided. Explore the options and methods of Raku by applying newly learned glaze techniques to your pottery that is then fired in the Raku kiln. Be sure to read the workshop guidelines and tips available on our website (http://yellowsprings.org/class...).
