Make & Paint: Ceramic Sgraffito Winter Plate

About this event

Make and decorate your own ceramic winter sgraffito plate in this creative pottery workshop, guided step-by-step by Chloe. Combining hand-building and surface decoration techniques, you'll first create your own plate from a slab of clay, learning how to shape and form it using simple hand-building methods. You'll then decorate your plate using the traditional art of sgraffito, a technique where coloured glaze is applied and carefully carved away to reveal the clay beneath. Inspired by snowy landscapes, woodland wildlife, cosy cottages and seasonal motifs, you'll bring your design to life through a combination of drawing, mark-making and carving, creating a unique winter scene full of texture, detail and movement.
