Join the incredible artist and ceramicist Niharika Hukku to learn to paint onto bisque-fired surfaces where your bisque-ware is your canvas.  Niharika is known for her exquisite illustrative designs painted onto ceramics. From flowers and fish, to birds and botanicals - her work gives a new reality to hand-built and decorated ceramics.  Niharika will guide you through her unique process to beautifully paint a ramen-style ceramic bowl. She will facilitate your ideation and encourage you to work with your own ideas and drawings. Inspiration can come from nature or can be graphic and/or geometric. You'll work on a pre-made bowl, so this session does not include any making of ceramics.

  • Learn how to create a connection between the shape of a vessel and decoration
  • Discuss, plan and sketch your the artwork design for your bowl
  • Work graphically in a single colour or observationally in multiple colours
  • Discuss brushwork and tools
  • Prepare surfaces and draw in pencil onto the surface
  • Create a colour palette. 
  • Paint with underglazes on a bisque fired bowl

  • Create one beautifully painted pre-made and bisque-fired ramen-style bowl 
  • Learn Niharika’s professional tips and tricks for painting on bisque-fired surfaces
