Each week,  explore a new technique to build layered, expressive, and visually rich surfaces.\u003cbr\u003eBegin with one-color stencils, then dive into multi-color layering, and learn how to combine stencils with low-tech newsprint transfers. Explore expressive mark making through drawing, etching, and Mishima inlay. Whether you're new to surface design or looking to expand your skill set, this workshop will give you the tools and inspiration to transform your clay work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeek 1: One-Color Stencils – Three Ways\u003cbr\u003eIn this first session, you'll learn how to turn your own artwork into beautiful, reusable\u003cbr\u003estencils. Diana will guide you through choosing materials, transferring and cutting your\u003cbr\u003edesigns, and using your stencils to create both positive and negative images. We’ll\u003cbr\u003eexplore ideal clay choices, and cover the best timing and techniques for successful\u003cbr\u003eapplication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeek 2: Multi-Color Stencils on Clay\u003cbr\u003eIn our second week, we’ll take your stencil work to the next level by layering multiple\u003cbr\u003ecolors to add depth and richness to your surfaces. Diana will demonstrate how to\u003cbr\u003eenhance and build on your stencil imagery for more dynamic results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeek 3: Newsprint Transfers\u003cbr\u003eIn our third week, we’ll dive into the art of newsprint transfer—a fun, low-tech method for\u003cbr\u003etransferring hand-drawn or printed imagery onto clay using underglaze or slip and newsprint paper. You’ll learn how to create layered, expressive surfaces with a beautifully weathered, handmade feel. We’ll work on both flat and curved forms, and explore how this technique can be combined with stenciling for even richer surface design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWeek 4: Mishima Inlay\u003cbr\u003eFor our fourth week we’ll explore Mishima inlay technique where the surface of clay is\u003cbr\u003ecarved or incised and then filled with colored slip to create fine lines or patterns that lay flush with the clay surface. Diana will discuss the clay best body to use as well as share methods and tools to achieve crisp lines and clean surfaces.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeek 5: Drawing, Etching\u003cbr\u003eDiana will share her approach to drawing on clay, including how to prepare your surfaces\u003cbr\u003eand transfer your designs with ease. You’ll explore expressive mark making through two\u003cbr\u003etechniques: Diana’s signature “etching in clay” method. We’ll discuss how to choose the\u003cbr\u003eright tools for your style and how to use them to create unique, emotive line work that\u003cbr\u003ebrings your pieces to life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeek 6: Combining Techniques\u003cbr\u003eFor our final week, Diana will demonstrate how to combine all the surface treatments we\u003cbr\u003elearned together to create depth and interest to your clay surfaces. We’ll cover timing and\u003cbr\u003eorder for each surface application.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wolf Craft Collective","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49207859249408,"sku":null,"price":480.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/0810\/0608\/files\/D-FaytVaseCollection.jpg?v=1787177950","url":"https:\/\/wolfcraftcollective.com\/products\/six-week-surface-design-friday-mornings","provider":"Wolf Craft School and Collective","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
