FALL 2023: Fine Tuning Wheel Throwing Basics with Steve Palmer, Mondays 6:30pm
This class is for those experienced beginners looking to fine tune their skills and take their work to the next level. We will focus on improving everyone's throwing and glazing skills. This class is open to anyone who has taken one or more Basic Wheel classes and wants to move forward in what they are able to create. We will focus on surface design, glazing, and honing those pesky throwing habits that keep our work from looking its best.
At least one Basic Wheel class is a REQUIREMENT. Please, no absolute beginners.

| Instructor: | Steve Palmer |
| Instructor Bio: | My passion for working in clay took off while I was a Studio Member of the South County Art Association. The opportunity to work and teach in a creative, supportive environment, surrounded by artists for me is the ideal. I received my B.F.A. from Rhode Island College, and studied sculpture in Italy at the Tuscan Renaissance Center. As a member of SCAA and City Clay, I continue to explore the many forms and functions of clay. Through teaching, I hope to share and ignite the same passion and excitement in my students that I have for the ceramic form. |
