Come make tiles of your own design. In this two-part class, you’ll receive an introduction to clay relief sculpture/design and plaster mold-making by creating an open-faced one-part plaster press mold. Participants will leave with a plaster mold of their tile design and at least four pressed tiles from the workshop. No experience necessary.
First Class: Design and create your own clay relief while learning sculptural methods used to create a 6” x 6” tile. Learn the basics of plaster mixing, setting up and casting a one-part plaster mold using your original clay tile.
We’ll pause the class for a 30-minute lunch break. To make the best use of time, I encourage you to bring your own lunch, as options nearby are limited.
Second Class: You’ll use the plaster mold made in the first class to stamp your design into clay and create a series of at least four tiles. Again, bringing a sack lunch is recommended.
