I will teach you how to make slip, how to add coloured pigments, how to make your own chalks and how to mono print onto clay. I will then demonstrate how to create some very exciting surfaces onto clay tiles and a finished vessel.At the end of the workshop you will be able to explore all these exciting techniques in your own studio and create your own incredible pieces.Suggested studio tools: Clay ( any kind you normally use ) Bone dry clay (reclaimed from same clay above) Hand blender for mixing small batches of slip. You will need to prepare some clay test tiles. Leather hard. Size can be approx 15x15cm or larger. Lidded tubs for slips taking into account how many colours you want to make. Ceramic stains. I will be using Spectrum and Mason. Brushes. Paper sheets for mono print. Either newsprint or what you have in your studio! Underglaze.
