Curriculum

Introduction

The workshop you're about to experience is modeled after the live in-person workshops I’ve presented over many years across America and beyond. But this workshop, because it's in video format, allows me to cover many more subjects and in far greater detail than if I was working live.

So, because there's so much more information covered, I highly recommend that you take notes along the way… especially when you get to a part of the workshop that gives you answers and solutions to a clay challenge that you're experiencing. And of course, implementing and practicing the solutions you find leads to progress and success.

And that's where the fun comes in! You see the solution you've been looking for and say to yourself, ‘I got this!’ and can't wait to get into the studio. And that's what it's all about!

Another good thing, because of how the workshop is presented, you can move through it at your own pace. You might want to binge-watch it at first and then watch again and again the parts that address your clay issues: like seeing centering options, throwing taller, making good fitting lids and great plates… and a lot more. The point is, because you have unlimited access to the workshop forever, you can absorb it at your own speed. There are no time constraints. And Kris and I are here to help you. You can e-mail us your tech-support questions at:

support@billvangilderonlineworkshops.com

You can also take advantage of my private community to share your journey and ask questions of your fellow workshop participants. I'll be monitoring the group with Kris's help and although I won’t be there to answer each and every question, if I see one that keeps coming up over and over again, I’ll jump in and address it.

Again, welcome to the workshop! Now, let's get let’s get started.

Lids and Lidded Forms

Making well designed pots with good fitting lids is something we all aspire to.

In this large 4-part lesson I'll describe and demo more than a dozen lid-to- pot configurations. And, how to trim and add handles to them.

In part # 1, I’ll show you:

- 3 ways to create a gallery at the rim of your pot

- 5 lid types and how to throw and trim each of them

In part # 2, I'll show you 4 more lid types:

- how to throw a tall, domed lid

- how to throw a wide, drop-in lid

- how to create a gallery at the rim of your lid

- how to make an over-the-rim lid
