Practice that evolves your voice: guided + open-ended variations that make skills stick and reveal your direction in clay
Meet Our Expert Speaker
Jacquie Blondin
Ceramic artist & educator • Jacquie Blondin Ceramics
After 30+ years teaching visual arts, Jacquie now teaches adults and studio potters online and in person. Her approach is design-led: using exemplars, planning (including 3-view thinking), and repeatable practice, so handbuilders build stronger forms and develop their own direction in clay.
About the Event
Join this free live webinar for adult clay enthusiasts (beginner-to-intermediate) who want to improve handbuilding beyond scattered tutorials. In 45 minutes of teaching + 15 minutes of Q&A, you’ll learn a design-led system for planning forms, practicing techniques in repeatable ways, and troubleshooting more confidently—so your skills actually stick. You don’t need your own kiln, but you should have access to firing through a community studio, school, or kiln service to fully apply what you learn.
