Making Drinking Vessels - Workshop One

The drinking vessel is one of the triplets of useful pottery forms - the cup, plate, and bowl - from which almost every other functional clay form is derived. And there's nothing better than using a well-designed cup that does its job perfectly! In lesson #1, I'll share with you the throwing, decorating, finishing, and some simple altering ideas – plus a handle-making and attachment demo – on five simple drinking forms: - shot ‘glasses’ - wine cups - espresso cups - a small tumbler/beaker - and large tumblers/beakers And I’ll share with you the weights, measurements, and tools used for each form as I make them. In lesson #2, we’ll make mugs… and more mugs! I'll demo the making of five mugs in a progression of sizes in more than a dozen shapes: - small cups with single-fingered handles - different-shaped mugs with 2-finger handles - mugs with 3-finger handles and lids - large mugs with 4-finger handles
