Learn sculpting techniques that will add a narrative quality to your work. We’ll delve into realism and surrealism as we create bas-relief collages and animal and human forms. When we cover finishing techniques, you can count on learning about stains, underglazes, glazes, and cold-process bronzing. In addition to sculptural projects we’ll also cover functional ware, raku techniques, cold process bronzing, and how to combine non-clay material in your work.

  • All materials and equipment provided.
  • You will receive 25 pounds of clay; additional clay is available for purchase.

Master Teacher Jim Valentine has taught art in Richmond and Hanover County for 30 years. His pottery and sculpted clay faces appear in public and private collections in the U.S. and Germany.
