Private Music Lessons
Spend two relaxing evenings crafting a hand-built vase, bowl, platter or project of your choice, embellished with floral and leaf imprints. The instructor will teach you various ceramic hand-build techniques (including coil, slab and pinch), along with glazing options. You can choose which techniques to incorporate into your piece. Pieces wiil be fired in the instructor’s kiln between classes, so that it will be ready to glaze on the second evening. Note: A $40 materials fee is payable to the instructor in class.
Simone Azevedo was a senior executive for over 25 years and in 2019 she changed directions and started studying hand-building ceramics and has a studio at home. Simone has expanded her love for ceramics and now also does watercolor and embroidery where she explores colors, textures and patterns. Nature is a big inspiration for the work Simone does.
