Hockinson, Washington workshop








I have recently retuned from giving a workshop, with Russell Ford, in Hockinson, Washington[ near Portland, Oregon] on handbuilding, glazing with local ingredients and firing 4 different methods. It was great fun . All of the participants were enthusiastic with very differing skill sets. We worked way more than we had thought we would to get it all in, but had a ball. The results were interesting, we worked with different river slips, feldspar and ash in layers. There is already talk of next year so if you are interested speak up. There is free nearby camping and the site is gorgeous. Here are some of my surfaces. The primitive fired ware is mounted on stands made by Russell, he can do anything faster than you can ask him to do it. I will be giving another primitive firing workshop at my studio in Val David August 6-10, any one interested, now is the time to register. Go to my email robinhutchinson@hotmail.com
