Geil/Coleman 3-Day Kiln Firing Workshop
Workshop Testimonials

 
Thank you for the amazing workshop at Geil Kilns with Tom Coleman. You were right- I learned a lot in those 3 days!
I have actually applied some of the things you taught us to the studio. I added muriatic acid to all of our cone 10 glazes and they are so much easier to work with now. Thank you for the great workshop and being so incredibly generous with your time and knowledge. The students will greatly benefit from it. On behalf of the ceramics studio at USC, thank you!!

Sincerely,
Karen Chu

Hi Paul,

I can't begin to tell you how great and informative your Coleman/Geil Work Shop was! Phenomenal is one word that comes to mind! I've been a professional potter for almost 40 years now, and the Ceramics Teacher at Laguna Beach High School for the past 29 years. As you know, I use your kilns exclusively at school as well as my studio. After all these years of experience working with clay, teaching ceramics, and firing kilns, you would think there is nothing left to learn. Wrong! Not only did I learn some new subtitles and insights to firing techniques, but Tom's expertise in glazing, throwing, and precise kiln reduction firing practices truly has re-energized and inspired me to a new and higher level of thinking about the craft/art that has been my life long passion.

I'm really looking forward to participating in your up and coming work shop in October! Please reserve me a spot on your list of participants. I am excited for the opportunity of seeing and working with you and Tom again! I've been in a lot of professional development seminars in ceramics, but none of them even come close to the quality of information I obtained from yours. Tom and you work so very well together and made the experience really fun as well.

Take care and talk to you soon!

Sincerely,
Bill Darnal
