Pottery and  Ceramic Sculpture Courses with Ama Menec  

I teach one-to-one and small group classes, (maximum number 3), from my studio near Totnes. I do not have a set syllabus, preferring to enable each student to develop their own individual projects and work at their own pace. Most students have lessons once a week. 

My workshop is equipped with a wide range of materials and equipment, making it possible to explore nearly every area of ceramics. Some of the techniques and processes that I can offer include majolica, slip decoration, sgraffito, under-glaze, oxide washes, low, mid and high fire glazes, use of resists, porcelain, paperclay, smoke firing, Egyptian paste, throwing, hand-building, sculpting, mould-making and glaze theory.  

Lessons usually last 2 hours, but intensive courses can be arranged to fit around a holiday in beautiful South Devon. Mostly I teach Wednesdays and Thursdays; day-time or evening, hours to suit you, lessons cost £13 per hour for one to one tuition and £9 per hour each for shared lessons, (but bring a chum to share the lesson with!). Plaster mould making courses are £15 per hour.
