Art Scholars enjoy ceramic workshop

On Wednesday 17 October the Art Scholars spent the day with Cambridge-based ceramic artist Rachel Dormor.

The main focus of the workshop was to explore texture, colour and form while working with clay. They learned how to create tiles decorated with unusual textures and how to make a plate adorned with mono-printing, screen printing and paper resist patterns. The scholars were then challenged to create a 3D vessel using the techniques they had learned. We excitedly wait to see what they will look like when they have been fired.
