Join ceramist Suzie Wright on this evening workshop to create your own small character chicken in a relaxed group session.
After discussing the rich variety found in these beautiful birds, you’ll get straight to work building your chicken using a range of sculpting tools with Suzie on hand to help you throughout the session. Suzie will provide demonstrations of all the techniques needed to complete your unique creature. Your work will be glazed and high fired for you to collect from ArtisOn around three weeks later. The finished work will be suitable for outdoors. This course is suitable for beginners and improvers alike.
All materials included.
*Please note this is not a catered event. If you would like to bring your own drinks and a snack that is okay however there will only be a short break in the evening.*
The chickens will be smaller versions of the ceramic chickens you can make on Suzie’s full day workshop.
What to expect
An evening at ArtisOn is designed to take you away from it all and provide the environment, the time and the guidance you need to create something wonderful. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors plus the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas and experiences.
There may be another workshop going on at the same time and we encourage everyone to mingle and be nosey about what the other workshop is up to!
Arrive in time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before beginning your session at the appointed time. Given this is an early evening session, you are more than welcome to arrive a little early to enable you to eat a snack or whatever. There will be a mid-session break for cake and refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. All refreshments are included.
Finish time is given as a target – there are occasions when the session may overrun so do let us know if you need to be away promptly.
What you’ll need to bring with you
All equipment will be provided, please bring an apron or clothing you don’t mind getting messy.
Feel free to bring fancy chicken pictures for inspiration.
