Glaze Intensive Course

Glaze is a fundamental part of the ceramics process and offers a huge range of colours, depth and texture to clay work.

Across the jam-packed 5 days, participants will be introduced to a range of techniques around mixing, formulating, and testing of glazes. We will cover glaze application and kiln firings. Working with SSW’s bespoke in-house glazes while developing skills in glaze formation, you will learn how to achieve a range of finishes to suit your work, from high gloss to true matt glazes, volcanic and crater textures to shrink and crawl glazes.
