Requirements and materials
No previous experience is required to take the course; all you need is a love for plants. Some experience with pottery will be useful for generating ideas, but is not essential.
As for materials, you need high-temperature ceramic paste and slip, tools for modeling and building your mold, tools for carving and polishing, and other tools to decorate and enamel. You should take into account that, to complete some of the course's practical exercises, you'll need to have access to an artisan's oven or a ceramics workshop where you can rent one.
