Surface Decoration Techniques on Clay
Workshop for Schools
This workshop is available to sixth form groups studying art and design.
A professional potter will teach students how to create a fascinating array of pattern and design on clay surfaces using coloured slip. Techniques include; slip marbling, feathering, slip trailing and slip printing using newspaper and latex resist.
Students will be able to explore these processes on flat slabs of clay and will be shown examples of how they can also be applied to three dimensional clay forms.
The tutor will show how all of these techniques can be applied to course work and how designs evolve from their source material such as patterns in nature or within the urban environment.
