Private lessons

Mary Cay currently has two students who are taking private lessons.

Their work has improved dramatically as a result of their own hard work and the intense focus of the lessons.  For more information on private lessons contact Mary Cay via email.

Glaze Workshop-A Primer

Mary Cay is available to teach this four day workshop which is a basic course in glazing for students who have not had a college course.  Students learn the vocabulary associated with ceramic glazing, the necessary tools, safety, resource materials are provided, books are recommended and glaze tests are made and analyzed.  Depending upon the students desired outcome, either a triaxial blend or the Hopper method of color development is assigned.

glazes from the 50's.
