CR1253: Introduction to the Wheel
Students are introduced to using the wheel to create functional pottery. The class covers wedging, throwing, trimming, and glazing for simple forms. Assignments explore the poetic presence that results from the character of clay, the manipulation of form, and the qualities of glazed surfaces. Weekly assignments focus on bowls and vertical forms with a focused glazing/slipping palette.
CE students may request special permission to enroll in this 3 credit undergraduate course.
This course is occasionally cross-listed with CR2253: Intermediate Wheel Throwing. Students should enroll in the version of the course appropriate for their skill level.
