Carla’s Art Camp

In it’s 15th year, this ceramics art camp offers hand building in clay, with many techniques including slab, coil, sculpting, pinch & now introducing throwing on the potters wheel. A mosaic project, painting lesson and glazing the ceramics are also part of each 1-week sessions. New projects: glass melting & fabric painting.

Students have fun creating from their own imagination, as well as making the projects offered. Step by step lessons give developmental strategies, problem solving & intuitive leaps for first time students along with kids who attend yearly.

A focus on creative growth and development, while encouraging exploration, imagination & individual expression are among the successes achieved in this camp. Each child receives individual attention & guidance, as well as freedom to create their own projects along with those taught.

Private Classes available  ( Adults & teens classes available) You can set up a special group to come to the clay studio, also I give a Girl Scout/Brownie Group clay session, or just a gathering of your friends to have a clay-play day or several. I also come to the school classroom and present a project for the class to make a take home item and I have taught a project for classroom fundraisers for the students to make a small creation to contribute for a collective fundraiser design piece such as a large platter.

I am a professional artist and have been painting custom tile murals and creative home decor for over 25 years. My teaching experience began in 1986 teaching art at after school enrichment programs and for private schools and institutions. My studio is located in Village Park, Encinitas in my shaded backyard and covered patio. It is a naturally inspiring environment and stimulates creativity and fun. there are two pottery wheels in the backyard, an electric one and an older kick wheel, and two electric kilns in the garage.
