Pottery Painting Short Course
What’s the secret to show-stopping pottery? Surface design of course.
Pottery painting is the art of decorating ceramic pieces with colours, patterns, and designs before they are glazed and fired. It allows for creative expression on functional or decorative items such as mugs, plates, and figurines. This activity blends artistry with craftsmanship, making each piece unique through various techniques like brush painting, sponging, or stenciling.
Our talented Ceramic Artist, Lise Moorcroft, will guide you step-by-step as you craft a beautiful, one-of-a-kind piece that you’ll treasure forever.
Whether you’re a complete beginner, lack confidence in your artistic abilities, or simply don’t consider yourself an artist, you’ll be amazed at what you can achieve during three peaceful Wednesday afternoons in our cosy, welcoming studio.
Draw inspiration from your own experiences — perhaps a cherished family holiday, a wedding bouquet, or a favourite season — or explore the works of renowned artists. Whatever your inspiration, we’ll help you transform your ideas into a tangible work of art through our Pottery Painting short courses.
Lise is part of the celebrated Moorcroft Dynasty famous for its spectacular decorated ceramics. Lise has inherited all of this talent, and added her own style to decorating statement pieces of art. She is an enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher ensuring that participants reach their full potential in each workshop while having a fun and relaxing time.
The Pottery Painting short courses consist of three weekly sessions on a Wednesday afternoon.
