CR1250: Introduction to the Wheel

Students will be introduced to using the wheel to create functional pottery. The class will cover wedging, throwing, trimming, and glazing for simple forms. Assignments will explore the poetic presence that results from the character of clay, the manipulation of form, and the qualities of glazed surfaces. Weekly assignments will focus upon bowls and vertical forms with a focused glazing/slipping palette.
 
This course is occasionally cross-listed with CR2250: Intermediate Wheel Throwing Students should enroll in the version of the course appropriate for their skill level.
