How do I go about studying pottery?

By: admin
Published: December 11th, 2009

I want to start pottery hobby but want to be good at it.

Are there any schools I can go to learn the science and art of pottery?
I’m 52 years old medical professional right now.

Most art schools/art programs offer ceramics classes, which are "pottery". You can take these classes via continuing education, or you can even do a degree, if you’d like. You can also take ceramics/pottery classes if there are any local "do it yourself" pottery shops near you.

Do you know a substitute for modeling clay for a pottery wheel?

By: admin
Published: October 15th, 2009

So, I have a little pottery wheel, but sadly, no clay for it. Do you know if I am able to make something like modeling clay that could work on a pottery wheel and dry with out getting moldy or gross? Or maybe do you know something that could be used as modeling clay? Please, if you’re able to, say as much as you know because I am a little sick and have nothing to do and I would LOVE to try out my new pottery wheel. THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =P

I think you need to find somebody local with a kiln.

Check with local ceramic supply dealers.
Also check pottery groups

People I know are very particular about what is fired

You will need to discuss what will be fired and what glazes you will use.

I take a ceramics class that clay is included in the price of the class. I also have bought ceramic clay in 50 pound boxes.

EDIT: I read some of your previous questions. You are are around Junior High School age. I feel that there may be some special things available through school. Please talk to an art teacher or any teacher. In the town I live I know a few teachers that do ceramics in the school system
