About This Workshop
This class will be focused on turning hollow forms and explore critiquing shapes, design, and technicality in your pieces. What is it that makes this form so attractive? Dan will discuss what is so pleasing in hollow forms from size and shape to the weight of the wood. Size means a lot in a nice shape, and one last cut could tie everything together! Dan will discuss these features and help students see them in their work while practicing on their own hollow forms. By the end of the weekend students will have improved creating shapes that are pleasing to look at. PLUS, students will learn how to improve their hollow turning skills.
