Egyptian Faience - Special Topic Class with Resident Artist Matt Pekarek

Learn the art of Egyptian faience (self-glazing ceramics, also known as Egyptian Paste and Blue Terracotta), originating from ancient Egypt! We will create and use bisque ceramic molds to produce small objects to decorate your work, wear as jewelry, or display as sculpture.

This course will cover the process from beginning to end, starting with creating molds for use with faience, mixing the paste, press molding and sculpting, and firing. All materials are included
