In Topic: Have you ever been to a workshop? | June 12, 2013

Posted 19 Jun 2013

I have attended a workshop also at La Meridiana this January, with Pietro Maddalena as teacher. He is such a funny clown and a perfect teacher in one. Looking at your picture lorielle, I'am getting homesickness. The stove in the back of the pic was heated every morning with wood. It was very cosy. I miss the Meridiana team (and Lucias meals!). I hope I will be able to attend another workshop at La Meridiana in autumn 2014 with Ellen Shankin. The one she's doing this year is already fully booked....

Hi Marcia

I'am not on facebook but I'd love to see the pics. Any possibility to share the pics with non-facebookers? Thank you!

I've ruined many a pot that was spontaneous, fresh, and gestural because I couldn't resist pulling it a little thinner.

Same here. Good advise Jim!

Any comments on those books:

Slipcasting (Ceramics Handbooks) - Sasha Wardell
and

The Essential Guide to Mold Making & Slip Casting (A Lark Ceramics Book) - Andrew Martin
Or will those overlap?

Hi Mart, I have only the Sasha Wardell book, so I can't say if they would overlap, sorry. Maybe anybody else will answer your question. The Wardell book is really great! Greetings from Evelyne
Too late, I ordered both and few other books I think I need. Damn, S&H + 20% VAT makes books absurdly expensive. 58 EUR worth of books cost me 104 EUR! And this is NOT with 5 day shipping. This is 3 weeks.
Mart, I have a lot of similar ceramics books and I can learn from every one of them still a lot. I don't think that ordering both books will disappoint you when you will get them. You will be happy to have them both, you'll see, despite the high cost. Happy reading!

Congratulations John! Very well-deserved.

I hope they deliver to Switzerland too. Or do you think it is available through online-bookshops? I hope so.
