WORKSHOP:
LAYERED SURFACES WITH RUTH EASTERBROOK
Sun June 28th, 10-4 PM
Join ceramic artist Ruth Easterbrook for a one-day, hands-on deep dive into her richly layered approach to surface design.
Through guided demonstrations and studio practice, students will explore glazing as a creative process of building depth, color, and imagery through thoughtful layering, masking, and inlay techniques.
Ruth will share generous insights into how she develops her signature surfaces, along with fresh ways of thinking about glazing that can transform your own work.
DIRTY HANDS, GOOD VIBES
Vallejo Clay Workshop is dedicated to providing a safe creative space for people excited to play with clay. Our goal is to give students a solid foundation of clay knowledge and skills while creating an enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere for making pottery!
We welcome all skill levels, from total clay newbies to more experienced potters.
ABOUT THE STUDIO
Our studio is equipped with large work tables, shelving, and storage. We have a slab roller, 11 electric wheels, wedging tables, ware carts, glazes, and electric kilns. We also have a variety of tools, books, and other studio essentials which are all available for student use.
We offer classes, workshops, open studios, studio memberships, and community events.
