Stillwater Community Education

In this three session class, participants will be introduced to basic techniques of hand building, throwing on a potter’s wheel, and glazing. Using stoneware clay and earth tone glazes, participants will create pieces of art using an electric wheel, slab roller and extruder. The first two sessions are devoted to creating and the last session will focus on glazing. Both new and returning students are welcome. Participants are encouraged to bring an apron or towel. A $35 supply fee due to instructor at the beginning of class.

Do you remember Bob Ross’ Joy of Painting series on PBS? This “wet-on-wet” painting technique is for all skill levels and those who have never painted before. Kristi will lead you step-by-step as you complete an entire oil painting in class. Discover your inner artist, or learn a new technique! The painting will change with every class. Instead of just being taught how to paint one painting, you will learn skills to apply to all your future paintings. Kristi’s first rule is everyone leaves with a pretty painting! A $20 supply fee due to instructor at the beginning of class. Participants are asked to: Wear old clothes in case you get paint on them. Bring a roll of paper towels to class for your own use.
