Artistic Narrative Through Clay course- Haliburton School of The Arts
May 10-14 2010
| The intention of this course is to provide an opportunity to explore creativity and express ideas through the manipulation of clay. Basic skills and concepts will be introduced but playfulness, experimentation and narrative will be stressed as opposed to skills and specific techniques. The clay will be utilized as an artist’s tool rather than a means of developing a particular element of craftsmanship. Contemporary relevance, parallel references and personal interests will be researched, discussed and presented as you investigate your place within the context of current practice. Initial projects will be bisque and glaze fired. Subsequent pieces will not be fired during the course. Additional clay will be available for purchase at the school at a cost of $12 unfired. Clay being fired twice costs $20 per bag, which includes glazes.
Contact us for additional information. |

Artistic Narrative Through Assemblage course- Haliburton School of The Arts
May 17-21 2010
| The intention of this course is to provide an opportunity to explore creativity and express ideas through the use of a variety of found and low-tech materials. Basic skills and concepts will be introduced but playfulness, experimentation and narrative will be stressed as opposed to skills and specific techniques. The materials will be utilized as an artist’s tool rather than a means of developing a particular element of craftsmanship. Contemporary relevance, parallel references and personal interests will be researched, discussed and presented as you investigate your place within the context of current practice.
Contact us for additional information.
