Service Description
In this hands-on ceramics class, students will create deceptively realistic sculptures inspired by the world around them. Using clay as their primary material, artists will learn to shape, build, and refine detailed pieces that closely resemble real-life objects — from playful everyday items to imaginative creations. Throughout the semester, students will develop strong handbuilding skills, including slab, coil, and sculptural techniques. They will explore form, structure, texture, and surface design while learning how to transform a simple lump of clay into something expressive and convincing. As their skills grow, students will have the opportunity to design and create their own original ceramic projects. No previous experience is needed! Beginners will build foundational skills, while those with experience can refine and expand their artistic style with Ms. Salma's guidance.
