10-815-200 CERAMICS 1: HAND BUILDING ...With a focus on developing the foundational techniques and skills used to work with clay, students will practice wedging, pinching forms, building with coils, creating patterns for slab-assembly of 3-dimensional objects, applying texture, utilizing slip in a decorative manner, principal glazing practices, and the process of reclaiming clay. Students will study contemporary and historical ceramic artwork and techniques, including the Kurinuki subtractive technique, and learn the process of ceramic art from bag of clay to finished object. Studio safety and basic knowledge about firing processes will also be covered.

10-815-201 CERAMICS 2 WHEEL THROWING àBuild on the core skills of working in clay with a focus on wheel throwing methods. Students will practice centering and opening various weights of clay on the potterÆs wheel, collaring and shaping to throw specific forms such as a tall cylinder, bowls, plates, and cups, applying texture to a piece on the wheel, and trimming a finished foot on a thrown object. Instruction and exercises will also include altering forms made on the wheel, pulling and attaching handles, principal glazing practices, and identifying formal elements of pottery through discussion and self-critique. (Prerequisite: 10-815-200, Ceramics 1: Hand Building with a "C" or better.)

10-815-202 CERAMICS 3: INTERMEDIATE ...Continue fostering growth in Ceramics studies with attention on variety and definition. Students will practice shaping and attaching formal elements such as feet, handles, lips, spouts, rims, and lids on a variety of forms, produce a set of plates, develop a defined quality of pottery interiors, analyze pottery construction to re-create wares, and participate in group critiques. Students will experiment with advanced finishing techniques such as wash, underglaze, cold finish, slip, and will be challenged to consider deliberate glaze application informed by distinct elements. (Prerequisite: 10-815-201, Ceramics 2: Wheel Throwing with a "C" or better.)

10-815-203 CERAMICS 4: ADVANCED ...Refine your abilities and work toward gaining the expertise needed to operate a contemporary studio. While students will apply their developed skills to produce a series of work and continue to participate in group critiques, the emphasis will be on testing and analysis of a variety of glazing materials and advanced firing methods and practices. Students will discuss creating glazes from raw commercial materials, identify glaze defects and faults, practice loading and unloading an electric kiln, and recognize alternative fuel sources for raku firing versus firing an electric kiln. (Prerequisite: 10-815-202, Ceramics 3: Intermediate with a "C" or better.)
