Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild
Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild
The Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild is a non-profit group of potters that fosters a creative, innovative and supportive environment for the education of students, professionals and the public in the ceramic arts.
In 2000 a group of seven potters from the Sunnyvale Parks and Recreation ceramic studio met to brainstorm on the idea of creating a pottery guild. The results of that first meeting was an ambitious plan that covered every aspect of their common vision - a non-profit guild supporting local clay artists.
Today there are over 150 members including clay artists, corporate sponsors, students and patrons. The Orchard Valley Ceramic Arts Guild presents many workshops throughout the year as well as an annual sale of guild member work. The public is encouraged and welcome to attend. All potters as well as those who are simply interested in developing an appreciation for the ceramic arts are always welcome.
The Guild is a California non-profit, 501(c)3 corporation.

That was well explained thankyou 😊
Could this be used with plaster of Paris so you don’t need to use a kiln?
Could this be used for plaster of Paris so you don’t have to have a piece that née to be put in a kiln? Make a square of plaster and let it harden. Then do your slip trailing with more plaster on top of your piece.
What is the black liquid used for sketch ?
Thank you so much for sharing. Always wanted to try this out but had no idea how to make.
Great video
Awesome!
Enjoyed this video! Thank you!
This is super helpful. Great explaining the key things to do. Wondering how to adhere the stencil to the slab? Was is just water you used?
How much does a 50kg consume electricity
I don’t see that Rejuvenate sells the “all purpose polish” anymore. Any idea what they might have renamed it as?
Your thumb is going to run into the clay because it’s going counterclockwise. You need to be careful when doing that.
Thank you, Scott, for this really interesting demo. I am a hand builder at heart, though I am trying to keep at least a basic ability to throw on the wheel. The vast majority of pottery videos on KZread are wheel throwing, as I’m sure you know. So I am particularly pleased to see this whole new direction for hand builders. Bravo! 👍🤓
With really soft clay, water works fine. For leather-hard pieces, a vinegar slip works best because it does NOT puff out the clay in the slip, so you avoid cracks at joints when drying.
How can I get a copy of the worksheet handout?
sure, the link to the handout is in the video description.
Thank you!
Got to attend NCECA 2024 this year and once I process all I learned there, I will come back and take notes. Watching all the way through first.
An absolutely brilliant video. Thank you so much for sharing.
Too much background noise😢
Very good video. I have a pot I bought a few years ago made by Manuel Mora Tena. Any relation?? My pot is signed on the bottom and is one of my "ceramic treasures" Mata Ortiz is amazing stuff. I've been a potter for over 50 years and had the pleasure of meeting Juan Quezada in 1980, when he came to our area to do a demo....
This was a really brilliant video, so informative and inspiring, thank you
Thank you so much for sharing this on KZread. Ben Carter is great!
Flick the clogged sandpaper over a wide bowl of water to keep the clay dust out of the air.
Clay can be additive or subtractive and combos thereof.
Excellent tutorial! Mata Ortiz pottery is some of the finest in the world! What surprises me is that their clay is prepared without having to add grog.
Hey, spend the money and use something like Everclear from the liquor store (unless you have moonshine making pals). 30 yrs ago after my first raku experiment with rubbing alcohol I didn't like the idea of breathing in the fumes. Next time I wanted to try the liquid combustible I bought the cheapest high proof liquor they had and used it. Hey. you don't have to use that much, and your lungs will thank you.
Thanks for the video, awesome audio and video and an amazing demonstration to share
Impressive work
Very good explanation ! Thank you very much & regards from Germany
Very nice piece and well demonstrated. Thank you.
As a gardener and potter I really enjoyed this video, however that hole was WAY too big for this pot. You would lose a lot of water out of the pot FAST!!
Your right. And... big pots fire better and crack less with a big hole. The trick is to put a screen over the hole and gravel at the bottom of the pot when it comes time to plant.
Thanks!!! It makes me want to make them!!!!
it's really looking figurative. As a painter. I'm compulsively looking for more hard straight lines.............
At each end you can add a bead so that cord doesn't slide off.
Sei bravo ma parli tanto, io sono un vasaio😅😅😅😅😅😅
Informative, lots of technical tips, food for thought! "You'd think clay planet could hook an artist up with a tshirt?"
amazing tips, thanks madam
Will you repeat the questions when asked? Its hard to hear to hear them.
Hsin-Chuen Lin is a great teacher. I enjoyed this/ Thankyou

Great Class, a real good job done well, Thanks
Thank you for this video. I learned so much about proper body mechanics while throwing big.
Clear shower caps are great to keep scraps and ball in.
Excelente todo me gustó
Hes nice teacher. Thanks for the video
Re soft slab constructions with Scott P. How many cups of cremations would his last piece hold? 💐
Beautiful ❤
I realllly wish there was a list of what he’s using!! Need product information!!
Thank you, very clear direction, great class🌟
Good job gerardo
