SUMMARY:Ceramic Birch Bark Basket Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Ceramic Birch Bark Baskets with Eric Serritella\nTwo Day Hands-On Workshop January 16-17\, 2027 \nLearn surface detailing and thin slab construction techniques to create your own lifelike birch bark basket in clay.

In addition to birch bark creation\, Eric will emphasize sculptural elements\, ways of seeing as an artist\, and anecdotally share his experiences making\, marketing and selling wheel thrown and hand-built works in clay. \nStudents will leave with knowledge of how to:\n• manually create large slabs without the use of a slab roller.\n• handle and assemble slabs of clay.\n• use templates for making projects from slabs.\n• mix and use slips of different consistencies and viscosities.\n• recreate the look of birch bark in clay.\n• recreate the look of leather straps in clay for incorporation into birch projects.\n• mix and use ceramic stains in layers and for visual accent. \nEric Serritella is recognized internationally as one of the top ceramic trompe l’oeil artists in the world. He specializes in hand-carved sculptures transforming clay into birch\, charred and weathered logs. His one-of-a-kind pieces are known for their hyper-realism\, and have been shown\, awarded and collected on five continents for their exquisite organic design and incredibly lifelike textures.

His 2018 solo show at Jason Jacques Gallery was recommended in the NY Times and he has received positive acclaim by Architectural Digest and renowned art critic/historian Daniella Ohad. Serritella is also an accomplished potter\, having studied with production potters in the USA and with four clay masters in Taiwan. \nThroughout all his workshops\, Eric emphasizes visual elements\, ways of seeing as an artist\, and anecdotally shares his experiences making\, marketing and selling wheel-thrown and hand-built works in clay.
