Porcelain Painting Fundamentals

There's a quiet magic to porcelain painting — the way a fine brush stroke blooms into something intricate and lasting. Led by experienced porcelain painting artists, you'll be guided through the core building blocks of porcelain painting: brush control, color application, and design transfer. Over 3 hours, you'll learn foundational porcelain painting techniques. You will also complete your own hand-painted porcelain piece from start to finish on a prepared project as pictured.

By the end of the session, your finished piece will be packed away for kiln firing — resulting in a durable, glossy, and long-lasting finish — and ready for pick-up in a week. Pick-up details will be shared during the workshop.

This beginner-friendly, 3-hour workshop is ideal for anyone curious about porcelain painting. The pace is gentle and encouraging, giving you the space to build confidence and settle into the rhythm that makes this art form so deeply satisfying. Come solo for a mindful afternoon of making, or bring a friend for a creative outing. No prior experience required — just a sense of curiosity and a willingness to try something beautiful.

• All required porcelain painting materials
