In the second session, students will apply slip and fire pots in the raku kiln. Optionally, surface designs can be added before firing. Note: Price includes instruction, materials, and equipment use.

Mary Gaines is a self-taught artist who experimented in several mediums, including drawing, quilting, painting, clay, needlework, and several craft hobbies, before discovering her love for stained glass.

The color, sunlight, and beautiful flora and fauna of Florida keep her inspired to create her artwork.
