Jeff Brown

One day workshop - Bring your own pots or use ones from Jeff to transform the pottery by using a number of handbuilding techniques. You'll paddle, roll, drop, squeeze, impress and carve your way through the leather hard pots, giving you the opportunity to try new things. The focus will be on pushing your limits and taking risks with different ideas.
