SUMMARY:Puffy Ceramic Hearts Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us to create two puffy keepsake hearts – one to keep and one to give! Participants will learn how to use a “drop” mold to create the hearts\, select from a collection of texture rollers to decorate the hearts\, and finish the hearts in their choice of glaze colors. Your puffy sweet hearts will be ready for pick up just in time for Valentine’s day. \n\nJoin us on Saturday\, January 1710AM – 1PMBAC Members $50 / Non-Members $55\n+ $10 Materials fee paid to the instructor \n\nDeAnna Steiner took her first pottery class at Pullen Arts Center in Raleigh NC in 1998. It was an introductory class to wheel throwing. While she found it challenging\, seeing the clay respond to slight changes in her movement was just magical. She was hooked! \n\nShe continued to work in information technology at IBM. During that time\, she took numerous workshops and classes to expand her knowledge and hone her skills. She learned new throwing techniques\, transitioned to handbuilding\, and explored surface design methods. There was always something new to learn; there still is. \n\nCut to today\, she lives in her childhood home in Morganton\, NC. In 2020\, she started Fig & Owl Studio and devoted all her energy to improving her craft and sharing what she loves with those in the community. She has recently started teaching and finds it so rewarding.
