4 Hour Experience: Design and Glaze your own design on a ceramic tile mural, 12" x 12" (made of 4 6" tiles).
730 S. Stone Avenue, Tucson, Arizona
This Studio C instructor-led workshop is recommended for advanced level. You are encouraged to plan and bring your own design ideas for a 12" squre.
You will walk step by step through sketching and sizing your own design, hand drawing with wax, and glazing a 12" square ceramic tile mural in the cuerda seca "dry cord" style, where wax outlines create a barrier between glaze colors. You will be able to choose your own color palette. All materials are provided.
The instructor will kiln fire your tile after the workshop and it will be available for pickup or shipping in one week after the workshop. You will be able to have the mural set and grouted into a frame for an additional charge.
If you want to create more than one mural or choose another design, additional 6" tiles pre-printed with a variety of designs will be available for add-on purchase to glaze at the studio. You can join our open studio hours after the workshop to sketch, wax and glaze additional blank tiles.
Our workshops will cover hand drawing with wax. Please note they will NOT cover screen printing. Please note Carly Quinn is not the instructor for our workshops
Expect that your tile art may have natural blemishes, pull backs, and pinholes that occur during the kiln firing process; While we will provide guidance, it is a hands on workshop to experiment with this glazing style, and we cannot guarantee the final quality of your DIY art. No refunds are provided due to imperfections in your fired art.
