10:00 - 16:00

On this fun one-day workshop you will make a charismatic ceramic cat using lace, fabric and rubber stamping to add decorative texture. You will learn how to quickly create a basic armature using simple household items.

You’ll be shown how to build your cat by cutting shapes from clay, imprinted with your chosen textures, rolled out using a slab roller. Expression can be added throughout the process after which your sheep will be dried, fired and coloured off site. You’ll both be re-united within 2-3 weeks (to be collected from Micklems Farm).

Please bring:

• A packed lunch

• Apron

• Any cat images that you would like to work from.

Included on the day:

• All materials

• Some reference pieces

• Samples to inspire you

• Expert tuition

• 1 to 1 guidance

• Detailed demonstrations

• A selection of tea, freshly brewed coffee, biscuits and delicious cakes. If you have any specific dietary requirements or allergies, please feel free to bring along your own provisions/milk alternatives etc.

And of course you take your wonderful creations from the day. If you share any photographs of your day here and/or your finished work, we’d love to see them so please tag us @micklemsfarmcreativeworkshops or use the hashtag #micklemsfarmcreativeworkshops.
