Morning Ceramics Studio, 239 SE 6th Ave, Portland, OR 97214, USA
About the class
Instructor: Brett Binford
Learn the ins and outs of plaster mold making in this hands-on workshop with Brett Binford of Mudshark Studios. Bring in your own objects to cast, and spend some time analyzing and discussing how to get the best results from your plaster pour - focusing on capturing as much of the original shape as possible, and ensuring your mold will release smoothly, producing a consistent copy for the longevity of the mold!
All participants will leave with their very own two-part mold!
- What to Bring: A few small objects that are about the size of a mug — we’ll chat it over and choose the best one to cast!
- Experience Requirement: None!
