DESCRIPTION OF THE COACHING SERVICE OFFER:
EDUCATIONAL APPROACH
Since 2001, my personalized educational approach has allowed me to share my expertise, passion, and know-how through my business. I put my skills and professional experience at your disposal by offering personalized 2-hour coaching sessions dedicated to bringing your visual arts and craft projects to life. I plan custom-made support sessions in collaboration with you, according to your level of experience, to meet your specific needs and enable you to materialize your ideas, achieve your goals, and complete your respective artistic projects.
During your sessions, I provide all the required specialized tools and equipment. During your training, you will also have access to free recycled clay and an individual storage tray reserved for storing your personal belongings and projects in progress. Raw materials are for sale at the studio shop counter, where you can purchase what you need to complete your project.
SPECIALIZATION AREAS
Throwing, modeling, glazing, casting, sculpture, jewelry making
TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
Exploring everyone's creative potential, sharing, research, design, and the development of new ideas, processes, and interdisciplinary avenues are a great source of inspiration for me.
Through teaching, I wish to pass on complementary techniques in ceramics, jewelry making, and sculpture to enable you to develop greater mastery of material in space and access greater freedom of expression.
The transformation of minerals by fire creates a universal connection. I invite you to study this artistic practice and draw your creative inspiration directly from the heart of the material.
You will discover that clay, thanks to its plasticity, malleability, versatility, and memory, is a true medium for discovering and exploring three-dimensionality and creativity.
To plan a custom training program that meets your specific needs, I invite you to contact me directly by phone at 819 428-1765.
I look forward to welcoming you and sharing my passion!
