Simon Shaw was a production potter until choosing to be a full time, self employed ceramicist in 1988. Since that time he has exhibited widely over the UK and also worked/exhibited in Greece, Bermuda, Bequia and Norway.
Most of his work is thrown but more recently he has been incorporating handbuilt and extruded elements.
Simon has a workshop in the thriving, creative Baltic Triangle area of Liverpool and teaches a throwing module at Wrexham University.
Simon is the 'hands' that produced the thrown images/ finished pieces for all the throwing projects for the book to accompany the tv series ‘The Great Pottery Throwdown’.
This intensive day workshop is suitable for those who already enjoy throwing and wish to expand their skill in throwing bigger pieces.
All clay will be provided. Throwers can bring their own tools if they wish. The studio is well equipped with suitable throwing tools.
Lunch is not provided. Participants may bring their own lunch or take advantage of the onsite cafe - Ginger and Pickles. Teas/coffees will be available at the studio throughout the workshop.
Non-members of Cheshire Clay Studios will be charged £20 per piece should they wish the studio to fire one of their vessels at the end of the workshop
