‘Just completed the six-week Continuing Skills Development Course with Patricia and had an incredible time learning how to use the wheel. We also made our own Japanese inspired tea set and tried out the Raku firing technique, which included creating the glazes for our finished pieces. I love the experience of working in clay and getting to work with other creatives. The Raku firing was exciting as the outcome was unpredictable. I didn’t know what to expect, but I am extremely happy with all of my finished pieces. Having been to many of the other courses Patricia provides, it was a lovely opportunity to continue developing my knowledge and pottery skills. I would highly recommend this course to those who have an interest in gaining more skills in their pottery practice and I hope to come back for more in the future.’ – Lee
