White's Seahorse - Ceramics Painting Masterclass - 30 October

$260.00
Sold

Please join us for an intimate and hands-on ceramics painting class where you will learn how to paint with underglazes (ie the “paints” applied under the glaze). The class will take place at our award-winning studio Coconut Crab, designed by Alexander Symes Architects, in Dulwich Hill, Sydney. During the class, Araceli will share all the tricks and techniques she has mastered over the 14 years + she has been making and painting ceramics.

The class will focus on the White’s Seahorse (Hippocampus whitei), a Sydney harbour dweller and the target of the Sydney Seahorse Project, which aims to recover the population of the species through the implementation of a conservation-stocking program, artificial habitat provision and habitat restoration. White’s Seahorse is an Endangered species due to habitat loss and anthropogenic activity.

This class was first taught as an art & natural history class by Mitchell Brennan who runs the Sydney Seahorse Project.

Participants will be given one of Casa Adams signature medium platters bisqued, with the seahorse already monoprinted and ready to be painted. All materials, including tea/coffee and yummy biscuits from the local Greek patisserie are included. The platters will be glazed and fired in the studio and ready for collection approximately two weeks after. No previous experience needed!

Timings: 6pm to 9pm

Location: The studio address will be given to confirmed participants closer to the date

***If you’d like to paint the seahorse on a dinner plate instead, there is an additional charge of $25. Just add this class to your cart and then add Dinner plate option for painting class to your cart as well.***
