An interesting Tile Experiment

I poured some casting clay in a mold, and in the wet clay I lay the leatherhard image of a boat(and a smoke trail).On the wet clay surrounding the boat I put some ceramic glaze glue.Then I added with the slipapplicator liquid clay to the surface;And very strange textures appeared which looks a bit like crystals.

Ok I have to work this further out but I ám really amazed by the result.

Light and Dark




My pieces came out a little bleach after firing.To accent the textures and to provide more contrast I decide to do an extra wash with dark ceramic inkt.Here they are with the inkt but I have to fire the pieces again.

The Textures last after Firing


Textures done with the slipapplicator and reliefpaste on a biscuit piece and then fired.I was curious if the textures would last after firing but everything goes ok.
