@CraigUnderhill7

There are various ways to do this but one way is to get some slip dry it out to a clay consistency and roll it into pastels. To prevent it being so fragile and crumbly you can add some gum arabic, pva glue or fire them to a low temperature (about 500degrees C)

I use stoneware clay and fire it to 1140C. It’s almost vitrified but not quite but that doesn’t bother me as I see my work as paintings made in clay.

Love your work, reminds me of Tapies paintings on occasions. Curious to know do you fire above 1140 degrees in your final firing, as they have a stoneware look to them? Regards Richard

@CraigUnderhill7 5 ай бұрын
A comparison to Tapies is always welcome 🙏 1140C is the highest temp I fire too. It’s ideal for me because it looks matured like stoneware but retains good bright colours.

your work really resonates with me. I'm a potter/painter/printer also. Encouraging to go with such thin clay. I also worked doing Architectural drawings. I like the large areas contrasted with the thin line. Another favorite texture is a news paper crumpled up to a ball and then covered with tin foil.

Of all the pieces I've admired and watched you create, this one is my favorite for all the reasons you described! I'm a retired primary school teacher so the added lettering with the pastel against the black background reminds me of the wonderful days of teaching penmanship on a slate blackboard. How you've added pieces against a 'too thin' side and straightened up the piece with a 'glob' at the bottom reminds me of how children think to "fix" their creations. The unevenness across the top delights me. I'm just beginning to take handbuilt clay classes. My instructor makes comments about smoothing out the seams and making everything perfect like a machine may create. I've explained to her that I like how I'm making mine a one-of-a-kind piece. After all, Pablo Picasso said, "It took me my whole life to learn how to paint like a child." I wish I could admire your creations in person but I live across the ocean. Wishing you all the best and thank you for allowing me to learn from you via your tutorials.

It’s important to enjoy the process of making and not feel the need to work in a certain prescribed way. Thanks for the message, it’s great to know that people really understand what I’m doing. Clay is a wonderful material and it should be enjoyed for what it is rather than trying to make it do things it’s less good for.

It’s engobe and is very similar to slip but engobe has a small amount of flux in it which makes it less dry than a slip.
