About

In this class, you’ll learn to create a clay-like substance by mixing a substrate with glass powder, and practice techniques to turn your clay into a colorful bird. Choose from a selection of bird templates to make a Bluebird, a Gold Finch, a Wood Thrush, or a Cardinal. 

Your bird can be mounted onto a stake for a plant pot, or you can add a hanger before firing. Since we will be using just two colors of clay for our birds, you’ll also learn techniques for adding color and detail with pens after your piece has been fired. The clay needs to dry for 3 days prior to going into the kiln, so your project will be ready 5 days after the class. Once you take your piece home, practice your pen techniques to add details, and re-cure your bird in an oven at 350 degrees.

Details

A $40 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers all the materials for this project.
