 ng Soft on the Wheel 
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop\, we will bring cone 10 bisque ware to decorat
 e\, glaze\, and load to fire the Bascom's soda kiln\, plus we'll make pots
  too. Soda fired pots tend to be dramatic and brilliant\; this workshop is
  a rare opportunity to experience and learn more about it. We'll cover pra
 ctical and aesthetic aspects of soda firing including slip and glaze appli
 cation\, prep for and how to load and fire the kiln. During heating up and
  cooling the kiln\, we will explore ways to make more dynamic pots. Workin
 g with freshly thrown clay\, we'll alter surfaces and forms\; squaring\, o
 valing\, fluting\, faceting\, and improving foundational throwing techniqu
 es will be on offer. In learning to fully utilize the effects of flames ca
 rrying sodium through a kiln\, we'll look at placement in the kiln as well
  as form and surface treatments\, including slips and glazes\, that are pa
 rticularly responsive to the effects of soda firing. Experience throwing o
 n the potters wheel is needed for this class. We’ll engage in lively con
 versations ranging over our interests\, passions\, technical questions\, d
 eveloping a personal aesthetic\, raw glazing\, single firing\, firing.
