If there's a specific technique you're eager to learn, let us know in advance, and we'll do our best to include it. This course is all about helping you develop your skills and artistic vision in ceramics.

About the Tutor

Lucy Baxendale is a Ceramicist, Illustrator & Community Artist based in rural Herefordshire.

Fascinated by the journey from two-dimensional sketches to three-dimensional sculptures, Lucy explores the shifting relationships between the lines in her drawings. As these lines transition into tangible forms, their narratives also evolve.

The outcome of these explorations are one-of-a-kind 3D drawings, intentionally unglazed and stained to echo the essence of a sketch. Through her work, Lucy bridges the realms of imagination and materiality. She invites observers to witness the evolution of lines into stories, forging connections between the drawn and the sculpted.

Lucy was listed as Craft and Design magazines ‘One to watch’ in 2011 and chosen as one of Ceramics Monthly’s emerging artists in 2022
