Ceramics I - Textured tiles Ceramics I - Textured tiles The purpose of this exercise is to introduce you to different techniques used to enhance your pottery projects. Make eight tiles - six 3 inch tiles and two 5 inch tiles. Make tiles at least 3/8 inch thick but not more than 1/2 inch. The 5 inch tiles will be used for Resist and Sprig techniques. The other 6 tiles will have the following techniques: Relief, Sgraffito, Incising, Impression, Stamping, and Rouletting. All edges should be smooth, canvas texture should not be seen in tiles, name should be on bottom of tiles. Tiles should be precisely measured as stated above.

Textured Tiles Primary design, sketches for the relief, sgraffito, incising and resist tiles.
	Low performance 10 points Student did not follow directions, 1 pts	Fair 2 pts	Good 3 pts
Resist Masking off a portion of the surface then building up the area with several layers of glaze or slips then pulling off the resist.	Low performance	Fair	Good
Sprig Sprigging makes use of shallow molds. You press the clay into the mold then remove clay from mold and attach it to your piece after slip and scoring both pieces.	Low performance	Fair	Good
Relief building up and or carving into the surface. Bas – relief is a shallow relief modeling technique, which is generally used for flat tiles.	Low performance	Fair	Good
Incising means cutting into the clay surface and involves a wide range of approaches such as, subtle or bold. Incising can occur anytime during the process until the work is bisque fired.	Low performance	Fair	Good
Impression objects pushed into the clay to form a texture. (similar to stamping & rouletting)	Low performance	Fair	Good
Stamping An object is pushed into the clay to make a print. Stamps are usually small and of a convenient shape and size to be held firmly, yet small enough to leave impressions on a slightly curved surface. Shells, jewelry, old lead or wooden print blocks are also good for stamping.	Low performance	Fair	Good
Rouletting You can use a wide range of tools that are rolled across the surface of the clay to make textures. Mini rolling pins, old kitchen tools and hand made roulettes are some of the items used for this process.	Low performance	Fair	Good
