Cardboard Cermaic Platter Workshop w/Trompe-l'œil artist Tim Kowalczyk 300.00

  • Peoria Art Guild 203 Harrison Street Peoria Il 61602 United States (map)

This is a one day workshop which will cover the use of underglaze silkscreen transfer and clay "cardboard" construction in a green ware state. You will take home a food safe platter which will be a great conversation piece the next time you entertain!

Tim is our exhibiting artist at The Peoria Art Guild and we are excited to have him teach this unique workshop.
