Are you looking to learn how to create rich depth on the surfaces of your ceramic work? In this skill-building workshop, Taylor will demonstrate how she creates layered surfaces on unfired clay. Students will experiment with decorating techniques such as stamping, slip trailing, carving, and underglaze painting using paper resists on tile and simple, hand built forms. Strategies for harmonious, asymmetrical surface compositions on vessels and color palettes will be touched on throughout the demonstrations. Beginner experience is encouraged but not a requirement.
Friday October 24, 25 & 26 10am-4pm
All materials will be provided:
5 Bone dry tiles
5 Fresh Tiles
Variety of Amaco Velvet Underglazes
Participants may bring:
Several leather soft pots to slip trail on and several bone dry pots to underglaze.
