ARTS 270 — Ceramics II
In this intermediate ceramics class students will continue to build on their vocabulary of ceramic techniques, methods and materials to create both sculptural objects and utilitarian vessels. Students begin to learn to fire the kiln and learn some of the technical basics of clay and glazes. Emphasis will be placed on personal aesthetic problem solving and successful design implementation, along with a focus on contemporary and historical ceramics. Students will need their Ceramics I supply kit and will be responsible for purchasing clay and additional tools. The supplies will be pre -packaged and sold directly to students at Portland Pottery on the first day of class. Prerequisite(s): ARTS-120 Corequisite(s): none
