This is a mixed class, with both experienced students and intermediate level. Covering; wheel throwing, hand building, slab vessels and glazing.

Tutor, Richard Naylor, has been potting since 2000, when he trained in Japan. He developed an interest in the creation of minimalist forms, many of which he distresses with texture and combinations of glaze and slips. Whether in the shape of small pots or large sculptural pieces, his style can be easily identified by their simplicity of structure and striking surfaces.

“I love working on the wheel, though for larger pots I sometimes use coiling as I find it a very therapeutic way of working and it gives my rather slow brain the opportunity to develop the idea of the pot as I'm going along. I am interested in things both modernist and rustic and like to play around the boundary between them."
