Pottery Wheel Class: Make and Paint Ceramic Plates
Make your own plates and decorate them on the spinning pottery wheel
1 hour
1 to 4
label
$75
What you'll do
Discover the beauty and relaxation of the pottery wheel at this fun Sydney class!
In this class, which is suitable for beginners, you will make your own ceramic plates and experience the meditative process of decorating your plates on the spinning pottery wheel. We will start the class by constructing the plates on the pottery wheel. Then you will decorate your plate while spinning on the pottery wheel creating colorful spiral patterns.
You will have the opportunity to work with a range of ceramic colours so you can customise your own design. During the class, you can chose to make two small decorated plates or one large serving platter, which will be kiln-fired and ready for you to pick up two weeks after the class.
Knowledge Required
No previous experience is required.
What you'll get
Two decorated plates or one large serving platter, which will be fired and ready for you to pick up two after the class. Price includes all materials and firing.
What to bring
Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting clay on. Aprons are provided but your welcome to bring your own apron.
Your teacher
My memory of working with clay reaches back to my childhood, when I first attended a pottery course. My teachers encouraged me to go to art school, however I have pursued a different career. I studied psychology, completed a PhD, and have become a university lecturer. I have been a sessional academic since 2003 and throughout the years I have taught various subjects in the areas of cognition, neuroscience, and educational psychology.
It was in 2015 that I found my way back to clay and started to embark on my creative adventures. I have coined the term 'Wheelfulness' to connect the practice of working on the pottery wheel with the psychology of mindfulness. In my Wheelfulness classes, I encourage students to reflect on how their ability to master the clay is enhanced by positive mindset and repeated practice. I believe that this ‘wheelful' approach not only helps students become better potters but benefits other aspects of their life.

Bettina was warm and informative. She was more than helpful and could read the room very well. Her venue is rather qaint and cute. She taught us very well how to make these cute plates. Would love to make them again, maybe to make a set. I would heavily recommend. This class was very calming. We did it as a birthday activity and it was so so cute! Cant wait to see our plates.
David Heffer • Nov 2020

Christina Cho • Oct 2020

Joanne Fishlock • Sep 2020
This class was so lovely, and really enjoyable. A small group, nice and calm, all genuinely interested, helped by a kind and talented teacher who had a very calm and clear manner of instruction. The small group made for a pleasant environment. The venue was easy to find, with plenty of street parking, and a short walk to cafes for a coffee or bite to eat before or afterwards. Bettina was lovely and very helpful with her advice and guidance. Would definitely recommend.
