Clay Surface Treatments

February and April 2018

Presented by Lesley McInally

Lesley demonstrated how she develops rich textured surfaces, building up one layer at a time, painting coloured slips of varying thicknesses onto a clay surface while incorporating underglazes, ceramic chalks and stencils. Using her mono print techniques, she paints the ceramic pigments onto paper and transfers the results back onto the clay surface.

Participants learned how this technique offers endless possibilities for pattern and textural variation.
