         SCULPTING ZOOMORPHIC VESSELS

           with Katie Maloney

Date:     Sept 6, 2025

Time:     9:30 - 4:30 pm

Location:  Virginia Wesleyan Univ


Workshop Description
Join Katie for a day of exploring animal sculpture integrated with vessels. She will demonstrate how to hollow solid sculptures, alter thrown forms, carve and texture surfaces, and create expressive animals through gesture and facial features. The
afternoon session will be hands-on for attendees. You can either focus solely on sculpting, or bring a vessel at the soft leather-hard stage and ready to have an animal added. A form Katie suggests is a tall walled bowl.

​

Katie Maloney is a studio artist based next to her family’s farm in Southeast Virginia.
Her early years of wandering through the woods fostered a deep admiration for the
natural world and continues to inspire her animal ceramics. Katie received her BA in
ceramics at Guilford College and participated in artist-in-residence programs including
STARworks Ceramics. She has taught workshops at various art centers and exhibited
work nationally at galleries and fine art shows including the Smithsonian Craft Show.
