Sympathetic Magic

A Workshop with Kevin Wallace

Saturday, December 4, 2021
1:00 - 4:00 pm

The objects we create, that have served us body, mind, and spirit, whether in tribal cultures or great civilizations, define us and have historically proven to be the means of expanding and understanding ourselves. The Spirit, though intangible, has been the essential element of human artifact since the beginning of recorded art history.

Goddess - Workshop with Maryann Cord

 

Goddess

A Workshop with Maryann Cord

Saturday, November 6, 2021
10 am - 4 pm

THIS WORKSHOP IS SOLD OUT

A day to explore the medium of sculptural clay and have fun creating, while delving into the ancient heritage of the Goddess. Participants will create their own small ancient goddess from clay, will learn hand-sculpting techniques including the use of the dowel in clay, and explore texture and mark-making using ordinary objects and stamps. Ancient earth-mother-goddess figures are among the oldest ceramics known dating back some 30,000 years. Participants will also explore the use of oxides, under-glazes and mason stains to add color and depth to the clay. If time allows, participants will be allowed the privilege to create and alter one goddess pressing from an original Beatrice Wood mold. The goddess you create during the workshop includes the cost of kiln firing and will be fired and made available for pickup at a later date.
