CERAMICS WORKSHOP 2

COIL POTS

In this session we created coil pots. We used ling strips of cylinder clay to put on a base which we used a knife to make a circle clean cut circle with. We got the coils and curled them around the base and blended them. We ensured it was a stable by using cross hatching on the cylinder parts, to the base. I did two of these in this session.

CERAMICS WORKSHOP 1

In this workshop we started making tiles and pots which were linked to the work on our mood boards. We began by adding patterns onto the tiles and then creating different gradients on the tiles, this was done by using different tools and objects.
Then when we finished it was to be put for the Kiln.
The pot shown in the picture is in link with the pot within my mood board.

TEXTILES WORKSHOP 3

PRINTING

To begin, the last session of the 4 (one I missed and am following up in this session) was press printing patterns onto the material from the last session. These patterns were mainly photos that we had used for the last workshop. We used fabric paint to put on the materials.
Next we began to sew and add extra materials, for example buttons. We used separate materials and patterns to create an A4 sized sheet.
