Studio pottery is made by an individual potter working on his own in his studio, rather than in a ceramics factory (although there may be a design studio within a larger manufacturing site). A great take on this latter type of "studio classroom" is described by Carleton University. It differentiates itself based on a topic of instruction, isolated space, instructor led/included, and an added focus of directed criticism.
This time and space is beyond that of instructional time and faculty guidance is not available.
A versatile and creative mind will embrace the opportunity of such practice to innovate and experiment, which develops uniquely individual qualities of each artist's expression. Academic curricula categorize studio classes in order to prepare students for the rigors of building sets of skills which require a continuity of practice in order to achieve growth and mastery of their artistic expression. A studio is more or less artful to the degree that the artist who occupies it is committed to the continuing education in his or her formal discipline. The above-mentioned "method" calls upon that zeal for study to play a significant role in the production which occurs in a studio space.
