Carving a Tile: 3) Transferring Design onto Clay Tile

Heyo! In this video I’ll show you how to use a slab roller to create your tiles and how to transfer your design onto your clay tile.
This lesson is designed to teach you 2 very important facets of carving: #1) how to carve order in your designs so that a shape looks like it’s in the front, another looks like it is in the farthest back, and a third shape looks like it is in the middle, creating 3 planes. #2) how to carve details into your work such as texture. Carving is an important tool of a sculptor, allowing the artist to etch details into their sculpture to create complex details in their work.
I hope you enjoy this lesson!

Carved Tile Brainstorming Worksheet: www.teacherspa...
This brainstorming worksheet will walk your ceramics students through designing a symmetrical design using a minimum of 5 shapes. They'll then carve 3 textures onto 3 of their shapes.
This lesson will help students with 3 main facets of carving:
1) Carving multiple (3) planes with overlapping shapes.
2) Learning to carve shapes into forms with movement.
3) Using carving tools to create specific natural or man-made textures.
These 3 facets of carving are essential stepping stones for students to learn before attempting more advanced sculptures.
This is usually my 2nd project in Ceramics 1 with mostly 9th graders.

I love you! Seriously. I’ve been taking pottery 2 semesters but it’s basically open studio. We don’t get taught and your videos are so helpful. I can’t use the wheel due to back issues so I’ve had to handbuild and want to do more interesting stuff. I wish i had your class growing up!

Awe! I love you too! Hand building is so much fun, so glad it’s working for you. Honestly, I never took a hand building or sculpture class, I just tried to observe what worked and what didn’t from my sweet students. And I’d watch all the Ceramic Arts Network videos… seriously, every single one. I’m glad you’re learning from my videos 🤩, and thanks for the encouragement. It means a lot!

Couldn't agree more. I'm at a JC and learn sooooo much more from Miss Linnea. She is thorough!
