Q: I've struggled with traditional ceramics. Will this really be different? 

Yes, completely different. Paper porcelain doesn't follow the same rules that frustrate traditional ceramic artists. The fiber content makes paper porcelain stronger, more flexible, and more forgiving. Students often find they can achieve delicate & more complex results immediately that were impossible with traditional clay.

Q: How can delicate-looking pieces actually be easier to make? 

Because paper porcelain is engineered for delicate work. Traditional clay fights you when you try to go thin or complex, and paper porcelain supports those goals. The "impossible" appearance comes from using the right material for the job, not from superhuman skill.

Q: Will online learning really teach me these advanced techniques? 

My online format is actually superior for learning delicate techniques. You can replay critical demonstrations, pause to examine details, and work at your own pace. Plus, I provide personal feedback and live Q&A sessions to ensure you master each impossible technique.

Who are these masterclasses for and do I need previous experience with clay or porcelain?
These masterclasses are perfect for ceramic artists, designers, and anyone passionate about exploring paper porcelain. A basic understanding of working with clay is recommended, but no prior experience with porcelain or paper porcelain is necessary. If you’ve worked with clay before, you’ll find it easy to follow the techniques taught in this course.

What materials and tools do I need?
A detailed materials list is provided with each lesson to ensure you’re fully prepared. Key items include "casting porcelain" (porcelain for slipcasting in plaster mold) & "plastic porcelain" (porcelain for throwing and hand building), egg cartons, a plaster slab, and some basic ceramic tools.

How much time should I set aside for the online masterclasses?
The masterclasses are self-paced, featuring video content and practice projects. You can progress at your own speed, depending on your availability.

Can I access the lessons anytime?
Yes, you’ll have lifetime access after enrollment, allowing you to revisit the content as needed.

Is it possible to pay in instalments?
Yes, absolutely. For the full bundle of both Paper Porcelain Masterclasses, you can choose to pay in 3 monthly instalments.
If you prefer to purchase just one module — either the Liquid Paper Porcelain module or the Plastic Paper Porcelain module — you can pay in 2 instalments. This flexible payment option makes it easier to join without paying the full amount upfront.

What if I have questions while taking the class?
2 monthly Q&A session via Zoom is organized, giving you the opportunity to ask questions and, if needed, see additional demonstrations. You’ll also have access to a vibrant community of fellow participants where you can ask questions, share ideas, and receive guidance. I’ll be actively answering questions in the community as well.

Are the classes in English?
Yes, the classes are taught in English, and subtitles in English are available for all videos.

What makes paper porcelain special?
Paper porcelain is special because it blends it with paper fibers, enhancing its strength and flexibility in its green state. This makes it easier to handle, especially when creating delicate, thin-walled pieces that are lightweight yet durable. When fired thin, paper porcelain exhibits a unique translucency, making it perfect for light-diffusing works like lamps or fine sculptures. The material is incredibly versatile, allowing for traditional hand-building or casting techniques, and can be easily joined, wet to dry, even dry to dry, or repaired. Its ability to minimize cracking during drying and firing makes it ideal for intricate, detailed designs, offering endless creative possibilities.

What is the difference between "liquid and plastic paper porcelain

• Liquid Paper Porcelain: A slip version ideal for pouring, casting, or layering, offering endless creative possibilities.

• Plastic Paper Porcelain: A malleable form for hand-building, throwing, or slab work, allowing for versatile use in traditional and experimental techniques.
  

Do I need a kiln to complete the projects?
Yes, firing your creations is essential to achieve the final results. If you don’t have a kiln, consider partnering with local ceramic studios or community centers.

What’s included with the masterclasses?
Along with the video lessons, you’ll receive:

• Downloadable PDF documents with additional information not included in the videos.

• A detailed materials list with every lesson.

• Access to a community for inspiration and feedback.

• 2 Monthly Zoom sessions to share your work, ask questions, and receive personalized guidance.

• You'll find me actively involved in the community, ready to guide and inspire you!
  

What’s the difference between buying one module or both?
Each module focuses on a specific aspect of paper porcelain—one on liquid paper porcelain and the other on plastic paper porcelain. By purchasing both, you gain the full experience, enabling you to work with both types and even combine them to create complete, beautiful pieces. This approach allows you to explore the unique properties of each type, from the fluidity of liquid paper porcelain for delicate textures to the versatility of plastic paper porcelain for sculptural forms. Thanks to the fibers in the porcelain, you can even mix these two techniques, combining the strengths of both to create truly unique pieces.
