art journaling in clay


I recently got to play with some clay at our local secondary school.  After seeing the image below on Pinterest I decided to have a go at adding texture to a clay tile:


Actually, I made a few!


On the advice of the art teacher I cut out the flower shape in card, then pressed this into the tile using a rolling pin.


I added texture with rubber stamps, the end of a skewer and by adding some tiny balls of clay.


I then got to splash on some coloured slip!  Looking forward to seeing what these pieces look like once they're fired!!!
