Mini Femme Vase
Service Description
Workshop Details Instructor: Shandi When: 1st & 3rd Saturday of Every Month Time: 3 PM - 6 PM Class Size: 6 Investment: $125 per person Learn Directly from the Original Artist The Mini Femme Vase is more than a pottery class—it is an invitation into my personal artistic practice. As a ceramic sculptor, the Femme Vase has become my signature work. It is the piece that collectors, students, and visitors most often associate with my work, representing years of experimentation, refinement, and a deep fascination with the feminine form. Every curve, proportion, and silhouette has been thoughtfully developed through years in the studio until it became a sculpture that reflects my artistic voice. In this workshop, I open that creative process to you. Rather than simply teaching a project, I share the same foundational techniques, sculptural philosophy, and design approach I use to create my own signature pieces. You'll learn directly from the original creator, gaining insight into how I think about proportion, movement, balance, and elegance while sculpting clay. A Taste of the Signature Femme Vase Course The Mini Femme Vase is an introduction to my Signature Femme Vase Course, a four-week immersive program where students create a larger sculptural vessel while exploring advanced construction, refinement, and artistic expression. This workshop offers a meaningful first experience with my signature style and serves as the perfect gateway into the full course. More Than a Vase Each Mini Femme Vase is sculpted entirely by hand, ensuring that no two pieces are alike. Students leave with more than a finished ceramic piece—they leave with an understanding of the artistic process behind one of my most recognizable works and a deeper appreciation for sculptural ceramics. A Note from Shandi “The Femme Vase is the piece that defines me most as an artist. It carries years of study, experimentation, and a genuine love for sculptural ceramics. Teaching this workshop is deeply personal because I'm inviting you into the creative process behind the work that has become my artistic signature. My hope is that you leave not only with a sculpture you're proud of, but with a new way of seeing clay, the feminine form, and your own creative voice.”
