Fabulous, I was lucky enough to take a course with Sasha a few years ago, and to own one of her pieces. I loved watching this masterclass, it has made me want to take another class :)
You’ve almost convinced me that I could actually do this myself. Ha! I know better. Thank you, for your generous...thorough...post. Well done, indeed👍🏽 #sashawardell #brilliant
It seems like there is a step missing, and instructions are incomplete unless you pay very careful attention, At 9 minutes (aprox) I see the positive pops out a bit thus it is removable.. Ceramic arts network has another video by Sasha Wardell that is teaching the same method and I believe better.. Tried purchasing the back issue by Ceramic Review, no luck yet. Awaiting email response there is no doubt she know her stuff. Thank You Sasha,
Once the plaster mold dries, the positive shape in the middle, having been coated with the soap, will loosen, and by knocking the mold upside down on the table, will pop free.
Sasha, I love the flexible plastic you used, but I was not able to understand what it is. Could you clarify what it's called and perhaps where you acquire it?
She is saying "cottle" (which may be spelled differently!). Cottle boards are a way of making a walled space into which to pour the plaster. She is using "plastic sheeting" as a "cottle" because she wants a cylindrical plaster mold.
She uses liquid clay, called slip, which has been colored. She pours the "outside" of the bowl by filling it with the 1st color of slip, waits a bit (varies), then pours out the liquid. A thin layer of the slip will remain inside the mold. She repeats the process as many times as she wants with different colors, forming layers of colored clay. When it is thick enough, she will let it dry, causing it to shrink and pull away from the plaster. Then she carves into the pot revealing the layers of color.
Watch closely at 9 minutes. The piece must be soaped . She opens it on the wide end off the piece , so it may just pop out. (the model) . I am attempting to subscribe to the magazine and then you can view the full article in episode 292?. Waiting for 1st issue..hope this helped
That is the best mold making lesson I have ever seen. So neat and complete.
This whole series is marvelous!
I'm eager to try her plaster/water ratio....that build-a-mountain method usually gets me into trouble!

I have no idea what she did and how that results in a mould

Fascinating pieces!
What a work! Excellent!
Wow! Love Sasha's work - way beyond my capabilities. Thanks for sharing.
I must be missing something - no matter how many times I watch, I don't see how she gets the original turned shape out? Otherwise great instructions.
How did you get the model back out.
Thank you for this very interesting video!
It would have been a 1000X more interesting to see how the actual pieces were made.

Maya Brewington i was looking for the same!!!

I don’t understand how the mold and the bowls are connected. Hope someone can explain. Thanks!

Great video. But how does she get the positive out of the plaster mould?
