Description
The joy in a well-designed set of dishes and comes from attention to detail. This class with Jasmine Crowe will study sets of all kinds, then design and create a set or two of our own. A variety of forms will be covered, and depending on interest, participants can throw sets on the wheel or hand build using coil, pinch pots, and slabs.
This class is best suited to makers with some clay experience. There will be demos on throwing and building different forms but there won't be time in the class to cover beginner throwing or beginner handbuilding.
Jasmine has been working professionally in clay for over 20 years. She has a degree in Art, a dual focus in ceramics and glassblowing, from Hartwick College in Oneonta NY. She met her future husband there, and after graduation they traveled a bit before he decided he wanted to work on his family farm in central New York. Once they were back in the area, and before having children, Jasmine was taking and then teaching classes at the Smithy in After doing production pottery work for several years which she reports was exciting and humbling, and ultimately an experiment in what her little home studio could handle, she is now working on designing pieces that she wants to use in her daily life with family and friends.
Jasmine says, “I am drawn to texture, to impact, but ultimately enhancing everyday rituals through clay. I am starting to teach again, and after twenty-five years working in clay, it is a true delight to share my love of this medium with the community again!"
