Make Your Own Texture Tools for Clay

Texture troubles be gone! Never struggle again when attempting to cover clay greenware surfaces with a textured pattern. Learn to make unique stamps that you will not be able to find at the clay supply store. Once the stamps are bisque fired they will be perfect to use to imprint pattern and texture on your wet work and you’ll have the skills to make an infinite number of stamps for your arsenal.

About the Instructor

Claudia Meyer

Claudia is an artist and object-maker living and working in Richmond, VA primarily working in clay and paper media. She graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a BFA in Sculpture + Extended Media in 2020. Her handbuilt works in clay, although they are made of hardened earth, feel soft to the touch. Their colors are as jovial and earthly as bursting laughter. These objects emit energy through their whimsical forms and patterns. She learns from the way that the moon and the trees wave to each other and the deep knowledge rooted in the earth and our bodies.

Through her teaching, she aims to democratize the classroom space, leveling the student/teacher relationship to one of reciprocity rather than authority. Her students learn just as much from the world around them as they do from each other. In her classroom, Claudia exists as a guide for her creative students' journeys and she endeavors to teach her students limitlessness in their creative pursuits.
