Pottery Painting
Pottery Painting with ArtMoment
Your own mug, your own design – decorating with engobes, glazing and firing included.
Pottery Painting for Beginners
Painting on pottery is the most fun part of our ArtCeramics pottery workshop: from 1 kg of clay you first make a mug and a plate, and then decorate them with engobes – coloured clay slips applied with a brush directly onto the raw pottery. Geometric patterns, flowers, lettering or a personal message – the instructor helps with technique, the design is up to you. No experience needed.
ArtCeramics datesWhat Do You Paint Pottery With
Engobes are clay slips coloured with pigments – they keep their colour after firing and are food-safe. They’re applied to the raw clay before the bisque firing; after that, the piece gets a clear food-safe glaze and goes into the final firing. That’s why you can’t take your set home straight away: in 5–6 weeks we’ll invite you to pick up your finished, glossy, ready-to-use mug.

No. We don’t use a pottery wheel but the slab technique with templates; the instructor guides the decorating step by step. The workshop is for complete beginners.
Your pieces go through drying, bisque firing, glazing and a final firing – we’ll invite you to pick them up in 5–6 weeks.
ArtCeramics costs 2 490 Kč per person (1 kg of clay, engobes, glaze, firings, welcome drink, instructor) and takes about 3 hours.
The workshop is designed around making and decorating your own set; we don’t offer painting on ready-made, store-bought pottery – engobes are applied to raw clay.
