In addition I will discuss how I achieve my finished surface with terra sigilatta.Step 1 – working from the bottom up we will create a shallow bowl form. Step 2 – we will then dart the clay to change the direction of the clay. Step 3 – we will coil and pinch the clay to build up the form. Step 4 – we will cut apart the form and reattach the clay to create lines for visual interest. Step 5 – we will make the lid seat. Step 6 – we will then build and finish the lid on the form.At the end of this workshop you will be able to make a lid that fits any hand build piece really well.Required equipment: clay, water, wire tool, scraping tool, xacto knife, rubber rib, paint brush<hr><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1t904sw3e9n3t0f8txg.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 299px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1rp02bhs08zhg94b85o.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 300px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1t502bkta8zf2cq98um.jpeg" alt="image" style="width: 301px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1t502doou8zgd189dh3.jpeg" alt="image" style="width: 301px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1sg04xq5y9n44j97m9d.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 302px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1tf04ul6a9n1dv0dm3l.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 303px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1sl04v8569n8a9n8hol.jpeg" alt="image" style="width: 305px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1an02cmr08z2ht5fsrw.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 306px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg1a604x7949nfv1hdg9f.jpg" alt="image" style="width: 306px; height: auto; cursor: pointer;" draggable="true"><hr><img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmazcg0za027jua8z81u7fj5d.jpeg" alt="image" style="width: 300px; height: auto; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px auto;" draggable="true">About Candice MetheCandice Methe is currently a long term resident at the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts, in Helena, Montana where she is a full time artist and educator.Website: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.candicemethe.com">https://www.candicemethe.com</a>
