STUDENT SUPPLY LIST FOR CAROL GOUTHRO WORKSHOP



Student supply list Boulder Clay works–Carol Gouthro

1. Clay working tools
Metal and rubber ribs. A soft rubber rib is very helpful.
Scoring tools 
Needle tools
Sponges small and large
Wire cutter
Canvas to work on unless provided by school
Old toothbrush
Brushes for painting underglazes ( soft bristle brushes), and also for wax and shellac.
Towel

2. Clay for Handbuilding. 25-50 lbs. I use terracotta clay primarily with some white earthenware, but all these techniques can be done with any clay that handbuilds well, it does not have to be low fire.

3.  A variety of objects to roll into wet clay to make texture slabs.

4. Bone dry greenware for trying out surface techniques, although we will be making work and these pieces can be forced dry and used .

5. Optional, bisqueware that is textured to try some staining .
