This course is designed to introduce and advance students in the art of wheel-throwing, focusing on both functional and artistic ceramic forms. Students will learn the fundamental techniques of centering, pulling, and shaping clay on the wheel to create vessels such as bowls, cups, and plates. The course will also cover surface decoration, trimming, and glazing techniques to enhance the final pieces. Emphasis will be placed on precision, form development, and creative expression through clay. No prior wheel-throwing experience is required, and students will progress from basic to more complex forms throughout the semester. By the end of the course, students will have a collection of finished ceramic works that demonstrate both technical proficiency and personal artistic style.
