gallerist Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Plinth Gallery is pleased to present a two workshop with guest artist Kristin Keiffer. This workshop will focus on altering wheel-thrown (or hand-built) forms a little and a lot. These forms will then be embellished with an array of decoration techniques from stamping and slip-trailing to sponging and resists.
