JESSICA PUTNAM-PHILLIPS


clayshare.com - also on Facebook

$75 members/$125 non-members.


The cost is low because it is subsidized by CDA. There are 50 spots available - because of Jessica’s high profile on the web, we will be opening it up to the general public in a couple of weeks and she expects that it will be sold out.


Demo Workshop - Friday, 12 April, Meet & Greet (food, wine & slides), 13 - 14 April @ VWU

Subjects covered:
Decals, slab, pressed plates, mugs, teacups,wall planter, hand built texturing, luster, drawing - basically anything and everything. Jessica has a site, clayshare.com, which for $9.99 a month, you can access any of her videos & classes. Take a look at the site, both free & member classes. There is not much that she doesn’t cover, plus, she has the reputation as a wonderful teacher.
One of the subjects covered will be decals - all participants will be encouraged to bring an 8.5 x 11” page of anything thing you like (words, drawings, photos) in black & white and we will print it out on a sheet of decal paper for you. Due to the method that we are using, it will fire to a sepia color.

CDA, c/o Lesley Hildreth, 1704 Catherine Court, Virginia Beach, VA 23454
