The Art of the Pour: Form, Function, and Gesture in Porcelain
Leah Leitson is a dedicated educator with extensive experience working with porcelain. In this two day workshop, students will explore Leah’s approach to creating expressive, well-balanced forms, focusing on functional sauceboats and related vessels. Participants will learn to throw and alter freshly thrown forms, manipulate and refine shapes, and thoughtfully assemble components. Decorative techniques, including colored slips, slip trailing, and carving, will be demonstrated and practiced. The process emphasizes attention to detail, design, and experimentation. This workshop provides one-on-one guidance in a supportive, encouraging environment where curiosity, exploration, and individual artistic growth are actively nurtured.
