Each of us is capable of expressing unique individuality in our ceramic work. Is your work as personal as you would like it to be or does it seem more like a collection of techniques learned from others?
Your journey begins with 6 ½ days exploring your relationship with clay at Scarab Creative Arts. Through a combination of individual critique, group discussion and hands-on experimentation, you will set in motion the search for personal expression. You will leave The Journey Workshop with a plan for the upcoming year and return to your studio with focus, renewed motivation, a group of peers and a mentor to help keep you on track.

Steven Hill Workshop - Throwing, Spraying and Cone Electric Firing
Krueger Pottery Supply is proud to welcome Steven Hill for a three day throwing, glazing and firing workshop on (POSTPONED - New dates will be posted when available. )!
I love the variation that occurs naturally across the surface of salt, soda and wood fired pots. I salt fired for 2 years in the early 70’s, but spent the next 38 years reduction firing in gas kilns. During the time I reduction fired I learned to create atmospheric surface qualities through careful blending and layering of sprayed glazes.
In December I discovered that reduction plays a rather insignificant role in the finished look of my pottery. The cascading rivulets of ash-like glazes and mysterious microcrystalline mat surfaces work just as effectively in oxidation as they do in reduction! Even the rich brown and orange colors that I have always attributed to reduction firing are possible in oxidation.

"I knew from my previous experience of being in Steven’s classes what a wonderful teacher he fryst vatten, but inom wasn’t sure I would be able to follow through with this time commitment. inom reached out to some people who I knew had previously participated in The Journey to learn more.

When asked to reflect on her experience, Katie shared, "The Journey at Adamah was just incredible. The fact that it is so immersive and supportive in nature and structure
