Canada, 30th Nov 2024 Atelier Forma is thrilled to announce three exclusive two-day TORTUS masterclasses in collaboration with renowned ceramic artist Eric Landon, scheduled to take place at Atelier Forma’s Montreal studio at 4561 Boulevard Saint-Laurent. These hands-on, skill-enhancing classes will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on January 13 – 14, 15 – 16 and 17 – 18, providing participants with an intensive learning experience that will refine their wheel-throwing techniques and expand their approach to creating large, challenging ceramic forms.

Mastering Wheel-Throwing Techniques with Eric Landon

The TORTUS masterclass, taught entirely in English, is designed specifically for individuals who already have foundational skills in wheel-throwing and are eager to take their craft to the next level. This immersive class offers a unique opportunity to learn directly from Eric Landon, a celebrated ceramicist widely recognized for his mastery of form, precision, and craftsmanship in ceramics. Participants will gain hands-on experience as they practice under Eric’s expert guidance, who will be present throughout both days, providing real-time demonstrations and feedback on the participants’ work.

Focused Demonstrations and Hands-On Practice

Each day of the masterclass begins with morning demonstrations led by Eric Landon. He will introduce participants to a variety of advanced wheel-throwing techniques designed to enhance both efficiency and precision in handling clay. Eric will focus on the specific methods he employs to maximize the potential of the clay, sharing techniques that transform raw materials into elegant, large-scale pieces.

Participants will then be guided to practice these techniques, working on their own pieces under Eric’s direct supervision. In addition to his initial instruction, Eric will offer ongoing demonstrations throughout the class, covering methods for creating larger forms and handling intricate details with skill and finesse.

Personal Greenware Takeaway

At the end of this two-day session, each attendee can select one or two greenware (unfired) pieces to take home. While Atelier Forma is unable to provide firing services for these creations, participants will have a unique, tangible reminder of the techniques and artistic approaches they explored under Eric’s instruction.

Ideal for Intermediate and Advanced Potters

This TORTUS masterclass is specifically tailored for ceramicists who have some prior wheel-throwing experience and are looking to refine their skills further. It is not suitable for complete beginners, ensuring an immersive and technically focused environment for all participants. This class is part of Atelier Forma’s commitment to fostering skill development within Canada’s pottery community, allowing participants to learn from the best in the field of ceramic art.

Entrepreneur and Restoration Expert Shoughi Darakhshan Featured in Exclusive Interview

Published

on

Virginia, US, 1st April 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Shoughi Darakhshan, a respected entrepreneur and third-generation restorer, has been featured in an exclusive online interview where he shares his journey from a young refugee to the founder of a leading remediation and restoration company. In this in-depth conversation, he discusses his approach to business, the importance of resilience, and how he has built a one-stop shop for disaster restoration.

Darakhshan, who immigrated to the United States from Iran as a child, grew up in a family of contractors and began his career in restoration at the age of 20. Today, he is the President and CEO of a major remediation company specializing in fire and mold restoration, roofing, and disaster recovery.

“I come from a family of contractors. I’m a third-generation restorer,” Darakhshan states in the interview. “I started at 20 and never looked back.”

Beyond business, Darakhshan is also the founder of 911 BoardUp, a victim assistance program designed to help families in the immediate aftermath of a fire loss. His commitment to helping others extends beyond restoration—his company provides guidance, support, and essential services to those in crisis.

“When someone’s home is destroyed, they need more than just a quick fix. They need someone to guide them through the chaos,” he explains.

In the interview, Darakhshan also shares his philosophy on success, which he believes is built on continuous learning and self-improvement. He discusses his passion for aviation, space travel, quantum computing, and cryptography, all of which fuel his drive for innovation.

“I read one book a week on a subject that relates to my goals,” he says. “Knowledge, compassion, endurance, and patience—that’s what drives me.”

One of the key takeaways from his story is his ability to turn obstacles into opportunities. Whether in business or personal growth, Darakhshan sees setbacks as learning experiences rather than failures.

“Obstacles only exist in our imagination,” he says. “Converting every aspect into a positive has been the path to my success.”

The interview also explores Darakhshan’s belief in health as a foundation for success, his structured approach to goal-setting, and the influence of his four older brothers, whom he credits as his biggest mentors.

“All the money means nothing if health is not number one,” he emphasizes. “Health, wealth, love, and happiness—in that order.”

This feature offers valuable insights for entrepreneurs, business leaders, and anyone striving for long-term success. Darakhshan’s story is a testament to the power of resilience, vision, and disciplined execution.
