Shawna Pincus: How to transfer images onto your ceramics
The Ceramic School
Hi, my name's Shawna Pincus, and in this workshop, I’m going to teach you:
- How to make your images (by hand or by computer)
- How to get started without expensive screen printing equipment
- How to transfer your images onto your ceramics and let your imagination flow.
Imagination is something often ignored in our busy modern lives...
However, if creativity is fostered, stories and narratives can be found all around us.
My work is about creating everyday ceramic objects rich with patterns, images, and text, which spark the imagination of their user.
Hand building allows me to connect with the clay on an intimate level as each piece records the process of creation.
The addition of slips and imagery is inspired by historical folk pottery found throughout the world yet speaks of my life and personal experiences living in Baltimore.
Through my work, I hope to elevate this humble ceramic material and primitive process into something to be discovered and cherished. I hope to encourage the exploration of a mug or plate and promote a daydream while simply sipping a cup of coffee or serving cookies to a friend.
After this Workshop, you could be making beautiful items like these:
