Wheel Throwing Basics with Brian Taylor

This exciting 5-day workshop will cover the basics of using the pottery wheel to create beautiful cups, bowls and plates. We’ll alter forms off of the wheel, carve embellishments and add colors by the end of the week. Pieces will be fired by the beginning of the next week for pickup or shipping arrangements can be made.

His work is exhibited nationally and he recently co-authored the book Glaze: The Ultimate Ceramic Artists Guide to Glaze and Color.  He received his Masters of Fine Arts Degree in 2010 from Alfred University and his Bachelors of Fine Arts from Utah State University in 2006.
