In 2022 continued restrictions on real life activities, as a result of the pandemic, has seen a global shift to the digital realm, with pottery no exception.
This year I took part in two online teaching events. The beauty of both being their worldwide availability, in perpetuity.
The Australian Ceramics Associations - Masterclass: Series 3
In Crafting Ware for the Table I demonstrate how I develop individual pieces within tableware collections. Ideas about approaching new work are delved into and I discuss, in detail, the qualities that are important in creating functional ceramics.
The masterclass is made up of three approximately 30-minute lessons, each with downloadable instruction sheets and a project to work on at your own pace.

The Ceramic Congress: How to make a faceted cup
In this one hour workshop I guide students step by step through the process, with demonstrations in blending clay bodies, throwing and trimming the form, surface treatment and handle attachment. I also discuss firing and glazing considerations.
This workshop is great for those just starting out on the potter’s wheel and looking for instruction and inspiration. I also offer thoughts on finding your own voice in ceramics and potential alternatives in technique for those with a little more experience.
