Description<\/h4>\n\n\n\n


Free modeling allows us to create and sketch with clay in a natural and almost instinctive way. In the ceramic animals workshop, we'll tackle the theme of the animal world in order to create a small real or imaginary figure with our own hands. It's the ideal technique for creating sculptural forms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Later, when the clay is firmer, we will create textures and reliefs and paint them with engobes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No previous knowledge is required.
We recommend that you have your nails clipped to make the shaping process easier.
Minimum age for participation: 16 years \/ Accompanied by an adult (two entries): 14 years<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practical exercise<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Modeling small animal figures, real or imaginary
Applying textures and reliefs with firmer clay
Techniques for painting and decorating pieces using engobes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*The pieces produced will be fired, glazed and fired again by us (they will have to be picked up afterwards).
