Please get in touch if you require a heavy duty tray and we advise you for the extra costs and get one for you (they cost normally an extra &pound;15/20, so we don&#39;t use them in sessions to keep the costs affordable.)</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">If you decide them to varnish them yourself, please make sure to leave enough drying time for the coasters after varnishing, before placing and hot or cold drinks in or the artwork might gets damaged.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Anna is using a special fast drying spray varnish, but for the heat resistant liquid varnishes available, It is recommended to apply three coats with approximately 5 hours drying times between layers.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This relaxing creative workshop is perfect to join on a regular basis, please see bundles to book in 2 or more sessions.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Are you organising a birthday, hen party or team social?</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Book a private session with Anna tailored to your requirements ! 5people minimum for private booking, sharing options with bottomless prosecco available, email anna@annakosa.com for details!</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">5%discount pp/5people 10% discount pp/10people 15% discount pp/15people 20% discount pp/20 people</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">We look forward to hearing from you.</p></div>

<h2 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What is the course about?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course tells you all you need to know to make work that is safe for the user. This covers glaze stability and food safety, pots for the kitchen, and all the other aspects of producing good, safe, functional work. For those who make their own glazes, it doesn&#39;t go into the glaze chemistry, which is now in a separate course.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The course is held over six weekly sessions, 19:00 &ndash; 20:30.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">These are also recorded and put onto the course web page so you can view them at other times
</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">All aspects of product safety are covered, giving you the underlying theory, the means to test pieces, how to improve the design, and the relevant standards and legislation.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">A considerable proportion of the course covers making durable glazes, crazing, leaching and food safety. Attention is also given to all the items that may be used on the table or in the kitchen. Also producing pieces that are frost proof. And general considerations such as stability and waterproofness.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What will I achieve?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">By the end of this course you should be able to&hellip;</p>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand glaze stability and how to test it</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand glaze leaching in both alkaline (dishwasher) and acidic (food) environments</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand what is meant by "food safe", which materials in glazes are potentially toxic, and you can assess commercial glazes</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the effects of thermal stresses on clay and glazes, and how to design to minimise them</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the requirements to make pieces safe for the dishwasher, oven, microwave and freezer, and methods of testing their behaviour</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the mechanisms of frost damage to pots, and the design and material considerations in making frost proof pieces</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the level of waterproofness needed by different pieces, and how to test it</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Assess whether a piece is sufficiently stable for its purpose</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understanding the issues in making electric lamps both safe and compliant with the regulations as easily as possible</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Design candlesticks and other pieces with an open flame</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the legislation and standards covering product safety and testing (UK, EU and USA)</li></ul>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Intermediate.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The course is primarily run through the weekly online sessions, which are a live lecture where you can also ask questions or get a discussion going. These are recorded and put on the course web page for those who cannot make the course times due to time zones or other commitments, or for those who want to replay them.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Additional material that you may wish to explore is on the course website. This will help you go deeper into the subject matter, should you wish to do so.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There will be a discussion session during the course, where we can discuss any of the course material or any more general questions you may have. This will be scheduled at the start of the course so that everyone who wishes to has the opportunity to participate.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There will be suggestions for you to test some of your pieces between sessions.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">No advance preparation is needed.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">You may want to test some of your work (which will probably get damaged in the process).&nbsp;<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">This mostly uses standard studio and kitchen equipment, though the following are useful if available:</p>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A pressure cooker</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Methylene blue or a similar dark stain (5ml is plenty)</li>

<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A digital probe thermometer reading from -20&deg; to 250&deg;C, e.g. a meat thermometer</li></ul>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What do I get?</h2>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Eight live lectures with questions and discussions, lasting about 90 minutes each week</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recordings of all lectures for later viewing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Additional optional online course material, giving background info and greater depth</li>

<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Course completion certificate</li></ul>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Note that the forum, lecture recordings and premium level site access are included at no cost until 4 weeks after the end of the course. After that, continued access is available for the cost of buying me a coffee every month (US$3 a month).</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Feedback from students</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Feedback is from the previous version of the course, which included a considerble amount of glaze chemistry geared to those mixing up their own glazes.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">I found the course both informative and enjoyable.

<h2 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What is the course about?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course gives you all the information you need to select, maintain and fire an electric kiln in a safe and efficient way. It also goes over what happens to clays and glazes when they are fired.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The course is run over eight weekly sessions at 19:00 &ndash; 20:30.<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Also recorded and put onto the course web page so you can view them at other times<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Plus an additional discussion session to discuss the course material, and any questions you may have with your kiln and firing - date and time to be set at the start of the course.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What will we cover?</h2>

<h2 id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What is the course about?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">If you mix up your own glazes, whether just picking recipes from books and web sites or running your own R&amp;D program, this course will help you by showing you what makes glazes leach, or not be food safe, or craze, and what you can do about it.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Much of the content of this course was in the previous version of the Product Safety course, but I have now taken it out into a separate course as many on the Product Safety course do not mix their own glazes. This also allows me to go into the glaze chemistry in a bit more depth.&nbsp;</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Six weekly sessions, 19:00 &ndash; 20:30<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Also recorded and put onto the course web page so you can view them at other times</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The course begins with a quick recap of glaze chemistry and structure. It then looks at how glazes can be attacked in acidic (food) and alkaline (dishwasher) environments, and how you can make your glazes more stable. This includes using tools like Stull and limit formulae, as well as testing glazes in the studio and in the laboratory.&nbsp;</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">To consider the food safety of glazes, we look at which components may be toxic and at what levels, and combine this with our work on glaze stability. We also look at food safety legislation .</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">We also consider crazing, to determine in which circumstances it may or may not be acceptable, what causes it, and methods by which you can avoid it.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What will I achieve?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">By the end of this course you should be able to:</p>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand what is meant by glaze stability</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Know how to use like the UMF, limit formulae, Stull chart and other guidelines to assess potential problems</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the mechanisms of glaze leaching in both alkaline (dishwasher) and acidic (food) environments</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand which materials in glazes are potentially toxic, and how likely it is that a glaze will be toxic</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Know how to test glazes in the studio, and sending glazes to a laboratory for testing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Take a glaze formula and improve its stability</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the causes of crazing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Take a glaze formula and increase or decrease its tendency to craze</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Understand the legislation and standards covering food safety and testing (UK, EU and USA)</li></ul>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Intermediate to advanced. Some basic knowledge of glaze chemistry and glaze formulation is required.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">How will I be taught, and will there be any work outside the class?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The course is primarily run through the weekly online sessions, which are a live lecture where you can also ask questions or get a discussion going. These are recorded and put on the course web page for those who cannot make the course times due to time zones or other commitments, or for those who want to replay them.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Additional material that you may wish to explore is on the course website. This will help you go deeper into the subject matter, should you wish to do so.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There will also be a discussion period towards the end of the course, where we can discuss any of the course material or any more general questions you may have. The date and time will be set up at the start of the course, so as many people as possible can participate even if unable to attend the live sessions.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">In addition, the course has an online forum that you can use at any time.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There will be suggestions for you to test some of your pieces and glazes between sessions.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Are there any other costs? Is there anything I need to bring?</h2>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">No advance preparation is needed.</p>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">You may want to test some of your work or test tiles (which will probably get damaged in the process).&nbsp;<br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">This mostly uses standard studio and kitchen equipment, though the following are useful if available:</p>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A pressure cooker</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Methylene blue or a similar dark stain (5ml is plenty)</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">pH paper or a pH meter</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">50g of soda ash</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Vinegar or acetic acid</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Lemon juice or citric acid</li></ul>
<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">You may also want to have some glaze recipes that you can examine during the course.</p>
<h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">What do I get?</h2>
<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Four live lectures with questions and discussions, lasting about 90 minutes each week</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recordings of all lectures for later viewing</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Additional optional online course material, giving background info and greater depth</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">A discussion period, set up at a date/time for most students to attend even if not able to attend the live sessions</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Dedicated online forum for discussion by all students on the course</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Downloadable PDFs of all presentations</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Premium level access to the Tech part of my web site, containing much more information, references etc.</li>

<p id="isPasted" fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">We are delighted to offer this unique, collaborative online bookbinding and sketching course.</strong></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Two Arienas artists - bookbinder Cass Barron of <a href="https://bookbindingwithcass.com/" fr-original-style="" style="user-select: auto; font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: inherit;">Bookbinding with Cass</a>, and sketcher Mark Kirkham known locally as the <a href="https://www.edinburghsketcher.com/" fr-original-style="" style="user-select: auto; font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: inherit;">Edinburgh Sketcher</a> - join forces for this collaborative online course that will equip you with the skills to make a series of hand-bound sketchbooks, and inspire you to start using them straight away.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">During lockdown Cass and Mark came to appreciate the everyday, particularly their house plants and the nature on their doorstep. If you&#39;re not able to attend in-person workshops, or prefer working from home at your own pace, this online course&nbsp;will encourage you to work with what&rsquo;s around you and get creative in your own space, in your own time.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Cass will guide you through&nbsp;making a handy book case with book-cloth spine and pen/paintbrush holder, ideal for sketching on the go, with the added benefit of being multi-use - the inserts are interchangeable so you can re-jig the inside depending on what you want to sketch on that day.&nbsp;Once your book case is complete, Cass will show you how to make a fold and cut concertina book to fit inside, as well as a single signature stitched sketchbook made up of different types of paper to add colour and texture to your sketching. She&nbsp;will&nbsp;share a nifty technique that can be used to stitch your sketchbooks together once they have been filled &ndash; a great way to collate your work and keep it in one place!</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Mark&nbsp;shares tips and ideas for adding a personal touch to your inside book covers as well as demonstrating some creative ways to add watercolour washes to your paper before turning it into books &ndash; a great way to take a way that blank page fear in preparation for sketching.&nbsp;Once your books are complete Mark will take you through a number of drawing exercises that will focus mainly on pot plants you have in and around your house. This will involve working with an ink pen and watercolour set, exploring tone, light and shading to discover your own style and create sketches full of character.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">How the course&nbsp;runs</strong></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course takes place online in the form of a series of pre-recorded videos which take you through the process step-by-step &ndash; much like we do at our face-to-face workshops, but with the added bonus of being able to pause, rewind and come back to the workshop as works best for you. You will have life-long access to the online course so can complete it in your own time, and return to it again and again.&nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">What&#39;s included*</strong></p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The price includes life-time access to Cass and Mark&#39;s online tutorials, plus all the kit you will need for this workshop including: Mark&rsquo;s recommended watercolour set, fine liner and water brush; paper, card, leather, glue and fastenings to make a refillable A6 book case; paper already cut to size (enough to make 1 x A6 concertina book and 4 x A6 single signature stitched sketchbooks); high quality bookbinding tools &ndash; so you can continue making your own sketchbooks at home.&nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The kit will be sent out by first class post, or can be collected in person from The Arienas Collective&nbsp;by arrangement.&nbsp;The link and password to access the online course will be sent to you by email.</p><hr fr-original-style="" style="border-color: var(--border-muted); border-style: solid; clear: both; break-after: page; user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box;"><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><b style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">*Please note: for kits purchased in 2023/24&nbsp;</b><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">the green leather-look cover material shown in the photo of the example book has been replaced with a heavy duty blue&nbsp;</span><span style="color: rgb(60, 64, 67); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style=" color: rgb(60, 64, 67);">wallpaper</span><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);">&nbsp;with gold fleck effect (shown in kit photo).
