Paint Your Own Pottery: Sgraffito Tiles
Join us for a fun exploration of techniques in "painting" bisque. Sgraffito is derived from the Italian word graffiare or "to scratch." Apply two colors of glaze and scratch designs or imagery through the top layer. Studio fee is $4 for ISU and $5 for public to attend plus the cost of the bisque you select. Pottery will be fired within a week for you to pick up. Pre-registration with payment not required, but reservations are recommended.
Hoop Earrings
Hammer copper tubing into hoop earrings, and experiment with patina techniques for varied finishes. Add silver ear wires and leave class with 3 new pairs of earrings to add to your jewelry box.
