Inspiration has come from the provision of the land; sustenance from creation. Origins of clay and glaze: the earth.

<b><span style="font-size: large;"><span>Nov. 4th and 5th from 11 to 5 pm. </span></span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span><span style="font-size: small;">If any Home School Groups want to put together a field trip for then, just give me a call or send me an e-mail. biscottipottery at gmail.com</span><br />
</span></span><br />
<span>(The studio is small, so we take up to about 5-8 students at a time for a field trip tour of the place. You can see the whole process in about 15 minutes, or stay and ask more detailed questions, look at examples of class projects, etc. You can see those at the blog too.)</span><br />

Several students entered projects to the AV Fair and did very well!. Good Job Students! I give them a blob of clay and they make great stuff!<br />
<br />
New class: A four session beginner class would cover pinch/coil/ and slab building techniques. All materials and firings included. $40. At least three projects completed, all experimental! Ages from 12 and up for the four week class. Class minimum of 3 and up to 6 students. So, find some friends who would like to come play in the clay. See my blog for class examples. Snack party at the conclusion to use our functional pieces. Class time 1 hour. Call for dates. <br />
<br />
* Family Memory Plaque:<br />
Each one in the family gets to create a square of a larger puzzle. You can make one large design, or each have an independent piece, creating a memorable event and something unique to hang on the wall. First three families to do this will get the Discount Experimental Rate of $6. per person. These pieces have a tendency to crack and therefore you have the incredible teaching opportunity to discuss how we are all cracked vessels, and how to deal with adversity, and how to 'feature the booboo'. <br />
Call me for ideas and directions! See the photo at <a href="http://biscottipottery.blogspot.com/2011/08/fair-photos.html" target="_blank">http://biscottipottery.<wbr></wbr>blogspot.com/2011/08/fair-<wbr></wbr>photos.html</a><br />
<br />
* Pinch pots, slab and coil construction classes available, also. We practice with a bit of clay, discuss the construction methods, and begin a simple project. $15. per student for the two session class. All materials and firing included. This class must be scheduled in a two week time frame. <br />
<br />
* Family Bargain Class:<br />
For one hour, work on a 'mini' pinch cup for each person. Have a common inside color and different outside color for a family theme, if you like.<br />
Or each one could embellish the mini cup with something personal, a flower, a letter, a shape. $7. per person, but it will be limited in amount of clay and time spent in the shop. Two sessions. About 1/3 pound of clay each and an hour slot for creating and another for glazing.<br />
<br />
I've had pottery badge classes for Girl Scouts and could do Boy Scout badges too.<br />

<br />
Our etsy shop has been a lot of work. <br />
First, you have to make stuff. Well, that is fine, since we do.<br />
Then, you have to decide which things to sell in your etsy shop.<br />
Next, you need to take a photography class and figure out all about pixels and what-not and glare and what-not and sizing and what-not.<br />
If you haven't worn out yet, you must know how to put the photos on your computer and then on the desktop and then oh, wait! You should edit your photos and make them Excellent, because there is Competition on etsy. Lots of it. And no one can pick up your stuff and know that it feels great.<br />
<br />
Where was I?<br />
<br />
Go have a cup of coffee or some ice tea and come back to .......um ........Oh, yes, pop those photos on the etsy dealy-bobbers so that your stuff is see-able to the billions looking for pottery.<br />
<br />
Then describe your stuff, creatively of course. Not just Hey it's a Bowl made from clay, no it needs to be a description: A lovely greenish bluish brownish bowl for salad, or something, and you want this bowl cus it's the best one for your blueish greenish brownish decor and your salad will taste mighty fine out of it. Especially a salad with cranberries and gorgonzolla cheese and with a bit of arugula and of course some organic olive oil and balsamic vinegar on it. Yes, you need this bowl; it is a necessity in this age of messy financial things going on. <br />
<br />
Let's say you have managed thus far and are quite proud of yourself. Well, you are not done. You need a paypal account and you need to remember yet another password. And if you haven't done it quite right, you need to remember a whole lot of other junk. Like what is your mother's maiden name? And what was your favorite pet's name in fifth grade? <br />
<br />
You may eventually get some sales. This is exciting! This makes it all worth it. This means something good has happened. <br />
<br />
But if you don't get any sales there are about a billion ways that the dear etsy folks have figured out to keep you busy and not remember that you haven't had any sales. Like, how about the Teams and the Treasuries and the Circles and What-Not. At least while you are running about all over etsy, you are seeing what is for sale. And for how much. And how confused you can become running from one circle to another, later deciding to do a treasury or two and finding out how inane the whole thing seems. But, nevermind about that. You are on etsy. A world-wide place for home made stuff. So, we are competing with people that don't mind making 10 cents for every hour they spend.<br />

The slab work above makes a delightful wall hanging. The turtle was made by my dad, in his 80s, with some dementia, which may or may not have helped in the creation. :)<br />
<br />
Each class should choose their realm before coming to class: slab, pinch, or coil construction. This way, we can teach and create with more focus. Otherwise, we get baffle-brained and it just won't be as successful.<br />
<br />
We might plan a four week class in March.

<br />
ORNAMENT CLASS:<br />
One-time class of just glazing DEC. 8, 12 to 3 pm. It may only take 20 minutes to do an ornament, maybe less. Just call me so I can reserve a place for you. Parent supervision needed for those under 7. <br />
Anyone can manage this! $2.00 per ornament. I have just a few of these, so it's first come, first serve: airplanes, dinosaurs, angels, hearts, leaves, ducks, etc. These are already bisqued and ready for glazing. So, come on down as a family or a little group, pick an ornament or two to glaze bright colors, or pastels, initial it on the back (with glaze) and you have your own special ornament. We will kiln fire it and you can pick it up within a week or so. :)<br />
<br />
BEGINNER PINCH POT CLASS:<br />
Monday Nov. 15 and 29<br />
Monday Dec. 6 and 20<br />
<br />
Pick your time: 10:30, 1:30 or 3:30<br />
<br />
Classes: Beginning fun for all ages: pinch cup or bowl. $15 total, per student, for the two classes needed to complete the project: Day 1 to create, then two weeks later for Day 2 to glaze. The two firings, the clay, and the glaze are included in the price. Check my blog for photos. The individuality that comes out in clay work is so much fun!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUhut-kFRmCwIgkRy1oIJ-9CE6m9XLOhKcK4_MEvzya3T2tHGSIcza5GvAIom0WHso4wEcUnzim0QtLsQiEPppoK9D95XGch1L-CF91PaaT44TewEVeQn0iXR4hoMhiCzX5X2mROePruw/s1600/P1200251.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="199" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUhut-kFRmCwIgkRy1oIJ-9CE6m9XLOhKcK4_MEvzya3T2tHGSIcza5GvAIom0WHso4wEcUnzim0QtLsQiEPppoK9D95XGch1L-CF91PaaT44TewEVeQn0iXR4hoMhiCzX5X2mROePruw/s320/P1200251.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
It’s best if we have from 3 to 5 students for a class. <br />
Also available: Slab class, coil building, family game set construction (variable prices), animal modeling, slab and coil construction. This is quite experimentally fun. It's best to do the pinch pot class before any of these other classes. Some of these require a bit of experience. :)<br />
<br />
Think at least a month ahead if you want to make gifts.<br />
