Description: This workshop covers the basics of uploading and editing hand drawn and photographed images into the Cricut Design Space program. Participants will experiment with various techniques such as using the Cricut Cutter, sketchbook and drawing exercises, digital drawing, vinyl and Tyvek cutting, application of Tyvek to greenware pottery, and slip application.
Although a new computer program can often be intimidating and frustrating, Sam will explain step-by-step how to use the Cricut Design Space program as well as help participants establish a foundation for using a Cricut Cutter for their future creative projects.
Participants should have a minimum of 5 greenware pieces prepared to bring to the workshop for decoration. Pieces should be in (what I refer to as) “cheese hard” state. The piece still has plenty of moisture, but not so much that it is malleable. Think of a block of cheddar cheese. When in doubt, wetter is better!
Participants are encouraged to bring a variety of forms to work with to test stencil placements. We will be using our pieces as canvases for our stencils and slip decoration. This technique lends itself beautifully to plates, mugs, sculptures with wide surfaces, and vases!
Note: Stencil application works best on smooth surfaces.
