Author Clay Sand Blends | A Complete Online Course

This is where your platter begins. Not with the shape, but with the substance. The clay itself tells the story. When you blend it with sand from your environment or a place that matters to you, you build memory and meaning directly into the body of your work.

In this course we teach you four of our core clay blends, the same blends we use every day in our studio. You can follow our recipes exactly or use them as a springboard to create your own unique versions.

Here’s what’s included:
• Step-by-step video lessons showing you exactly how to make each blend
• Recipes for our four signature clays, plus a bonus recipe for our Bali Blend
• A full system for making test tiles so you can explore variations
• A dedicated lesson on how to develop your own personal blend
• Access to our online community of makers

The community is where it all comes together. It’s a place to share your wins and your fails, to ask questions directly to me, and to learn from other potters on the same path. No ego, no judgement, just people sharing knowledge, supporting each other, and growing together.

In this class we open up everything that makes Author Ceramics so special. These are the secrets we use every day, laid out step by step so you can bring them into your own work.
