Have you ever thought of your favorite picture in a three dimensional version?
Building a Relief Picture
In this workshop we transform an idea or an image that we like into a three-dimensional picture. It could be a portrait, a landscape, a plant or animal, a mandala or just anything that you can imagine. There are no limits! After the pieces are fired we will meet again and paint them with acrylics.
Here you can find pictures of some examples.

Have you ever wondered how it is to approach clay in a more intuitive way?
Clay Meditation & Creating your unique Treasure Box
This half day ceramic workshop is for anybody who likes to experience the beauty and magic of the natural material clay. If it’s your first time touching clay or not doesn’t matter – there is something in it for everyone.
The four hours consist of three parts:
- Experiencing the material clay in a playful way
- Clay Meditation
- Creating your own little unique Treasure Box
Your Treasure Box will be fired and glazed with a transparent glaze inside. It will stay in the terracotta colour of the fired clay with a whitish wash.

Or are you attracted to ceramic figurines and always wanted to sculpt one yourself but don’t know how?
Sculpting Figurines
This workshop is devoted to sculpting. After a short study of proportions of the human body and some examples of different kinds of sculptures we shape and model our own figure. This is quite an open field from very realistic to completely abstract.
My intention is to help everyone find an idea, a pose and a way to sculpt a figure that suits his/her abilities and tastes and to support putting it into practice.
The finished sculptures will be dried and fired and will get that typical terracotta colour of the fired clay.
