I was able to make 3 pieces and the pictures are of the finished creations. I've never thrown on a wheel previously so it was nice having someone guide me and show me what to do and explain how the process works. There were so many glazes to choose from so it did take me about a half hour to decide which pieces I wanted which color. Very pleased with how affordable the class was and the products turnaround time was in a timely manner! I will definitely be back!

My concern is that beginning artist are working with poor materials from local hobby type shops and shops that want to sell ONLY their own cheap brand.

Art Depot has a decent selection for brushes, paint, pencils, markers, canvas and paper. Prices were slightly more than chains but in line with other independent art stores. Interestingly, an employee (owner?) was very chatty and overheard him mention he had some canvas that was shit and he discounted it and will no longer sell it. He had a lot of back story for a customer who wasn't even buying canvas. Maybe he didn't know and wanted to give the person a heads up before they bought crap canvas. Or maybe he thought the customer would know it was crap canvas and he wanted to preempt negative questioning. Anyway, completely recommend this store.

The prices are very reasonable too.
