Pottery Wheel Throwing Course, Barcelona
Just finished the most amazing Intensive Wheel Throwing Course at Eltorn Barcelona Ceramics in Barcelona! Run by Swiss Martin Loew (who speaks 4 languages) in a vibrant, well organised ceramic studio in the Clot Area of Barcelona. Catalan pasties and good coffee served as part of the course!
We all made several pieces which we left to be glazed, fired and then sent onto us ... so watch this space for the results to come...!
