Creative Winter Course with Lisa Hartwig Ericson & Hannah Widell
For the first time, Hannah and Lisa invite you to an intensive course filled with inspiration, creative joy, and artistic development – with clay, color, and form as the foundation. Give away (or treat yourself to!) a Christmas present that offers calm, energy, and mental recovery during the winter break. During the course, Hannah will give inspiring lectures on finding your creative expression and daring to create freely, while Lisa, artist and designer, will show you how to create unique works in clay with simple steps – no prior knowledge required.
Let your hands work, your thoughts rest, and your imagination take flight. Limited number of spots – sign up now and start the year with new energy!
Structure
For 4 days, you will be led by the skilled ceramist Lisa Ericson, trained at Konstfack (University of Arts, Crafts and Design), who will guide you through various techniques for hand-building and decoration. You will learn to shape and express yourself through clay – from sketch to finished work.
As an added dimension, Hannah Widell will share her expertise in creativity, personal style, and how to build your brand for approximately one hour each day.
Day 1
Lisa: Pinching, coiling, and slab building
Hannah: Finding yourself in clay
Day 2
Lisa: Decoration and color (engobes)
Hannah: Finding your style and expression
Day 3
Lisa: Marbling
Hannah: Where do I find the courage

After the intensive course, the pieces will be dried and fired and, if desired, glazed (this will be done by us if you wish to have clear glaze). The works will be ready for pick-up approximately 7-8 weeks after the course ends, and we will contact you by email as soon as they are ready.
The course fee includes:
- 3 kg stoneware clay - thereafter 100kr/kg
- Tools, various materials, engobes and underglazes, transparent glaze, and firings. We will dip all desired pieces in transparent glaze after the course.
- Coffee, tea, and seven kinds of cookies
- A tremendous amount of fantastic knowledge and inspiration
