This 3-day workshop is an introduction to making wafer-thin bowls with flax-reinforced porcelain on an inflated balloon, and to making a shrinking support to hang the bowl in the kiln. You will learn the material, how to make very thin pieces, and several pattern-application techniques demonstrated by Guy Van Leemput. Each participant will make three bowls using one or more demonstrated techniques and will make swinging supports for firing. Only works from the first day will be fired. All materials, tools and vegetarian meals are provided each day.
