About the event
Learn to master one of the most eye-catching glaze styles around — the Peacock Technique. Known for its signature loops, dots, and layered glaze effects that resemble a peacock’s feathers, this method creates flowing, multicolored patterns that truly pop after firing.
In this hands-on workshop, each participant will receive a slip-cast bisque stoneware bowl to work on. You’ll be guided through:
Creating the peacock effect using brush-applied glazes
Tips for brush control, layering, and color placement
Common glazing mistakes (and how to avoid them)
How different materials and kiln conditions affect results
