  • 1 Appalachian Center for Crafts Vince Pitelka, 2016 Glossary of Colored
    Appalachian Center for Crafts Vince Pitelka, 2016 Glossary of Colored Clay Techniques Basalt Body: a clay body containing enough metallic oxides to fire to a gray-black or chocolate brown color. Basalt bodies may be fine-grained and smooth, as in Wedgewood black basalt ware, or may be grainy and rough, as in some sculptural works by Peter Voulkos and John Mason. Burnishing: historically the third stage in pottery decoration in almost every culture, after surface impressing and slip painting. Burnishing allows for a smooth, dense, glassy surface on any clay without the use of glazes. Color intensity is enhanced with burnishing almost as effectively as with the “wetting” effect of a clear glaze, and burnishing gives a satin texture achievable through no other method. Burnishing is generally done at the bone dry stage after re-introducing moisture into the clay with a thin coat of lard, glycerin, shortening, or cooking oil. One the lard or oil is absorbed, the surface is rubbed with a smooth hard object such as a shiny pebble or the back of a steel spoon. After firing, burnished wares are often polished further with pure tung-oil (a wood-finishing oil) or furniture polish. Clay Marquetry: similar to marquetry in wood. Small pieces of damp colored clays are assembled on a clay back-up slab (with a spray of vinegar water) to create pictorial imagery. Sometimes the designs are improvised during assembly, often overlapping components. For greater precision and pictorial clarity, an original design may be executed on poster-board, which is then cut up into individual templates.

Thematic Manifestations: an Aesthetic Journey ______________________ A thesis presented to the faculty of the Department of Art and Design East Tennessee State University ______________________ In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Studio Art ______________________ by Jeff Kise May 2004 _____________________ Don Davis, Chair Anita DeAngelis Catherine Murray Keywords: Ceramics, Simplicity, Aesthetics, Saggar Firing, Flash Firing, Naked Raku ABSTRACT Thematic Manifestations: An Aesthetic Journey by Jeff Kise This thesis, in support of the Master of Fine Arts exhibition entitled Thematic Manifestations at East Tennessee State University, Carroll Reece Museum, Johnson City, Tennessee, March 2-12, 2004, describes in detail three aesthetic themes that are manifested in the work exhibited. The artist discusses his journey in establishing a “criterion of aesthetic values” whereby his work is conceptually developed. The three themes – The Paradox of Simplicity, The Decorative Power of Nature, and The Beauty of the Irregular – are founded on historical and contemporary influences and are further described in practical application of form and process.

  • Create a Flock of Birds One Pinch Pot at a Time by Jennifer Hoolihan
    Lesson Plan #42 Create a Flock of Birds One Pinch Pot at a Time by Jennifer Hoolihan Jennifer Hoolihan, Asheville NC As we go about our day-to-day activities, birds are the most common form(Chickens: of wildlife LM-53 we encounterOrchid, on a regular basis. They live secret and fascinating lives that have longLM-41 piqued Chartreuse our imaginations. , LM-54 Coral) This has rendered them as important symbols and subject matter utilized throughout art history. From chickens to warblers, birds come in all shapes and sizes. Create a multi-species flock from pinched bowls and a few simple tools with firing or self-hardening clay over a couple of class periods. Start by looking at pictures of different types of birds and discuss their shapes and sizes. Birds can be sleek and minimal, like the Cat Bird, or have lots of visual texture, such as the Starling. The starting shape of the pinched bowl will influence the bird form. The birds can also be used to create functional items like salt and pepper shakers, bud vases, and rattles. Tools & Materials Lesson Plan Goals and Objectives l AMACO® Low Fire Clay (White #25 or Red #67) l Students will create a hollow bird using pinch and coil Optional: AMACO® air dry clays— methods, refine the surface, and then personalize with Mexican Pottery Clay™ (Red), Marblex™ (Gray) or texture and glazes.

  • Bisque Or Biscuit: the First Firing a Pot Undergoes to Prepare It for Glazing
    Glossary of Ceramic Terms: Introduction to Ceramic Terms and Definitions Bisque or Biscuit: The first firing a pot undergoes to prepare it for glazing. In industry this is done at a higher temperature than the subsequent glaze firing, the reverse is usually true of the studio potter. Burnishing: A technique where the Leather hard clay is polished with a hard instrument to force the smallest clay particles to the surface creating a soft sheen. This surface remains after the pot is fired so long as the firing temperature is kept below 1100oC. Clay: AL2O3 2SiO2 2H2O. The decomposition of Granite through the process of Kaolinization creates clay (see Kaolinization). Clay is a mineral with a plate (platelet) like structure; it is these plates, (about 0.5 microns across) when lubricated with water, slide against each other to form the plastic mass we know as clay (see Water). 'Primary ' clays are those found close to the area of Kaolinization and hence the purest (Kaolin or China Clays). Secondary clays are those moved by water away form the site of Kaolinization and get progressively more plastic and less pure (Ball Clays, Fire clays, Earthenwares). Clay Body: A clay designed for a special purpose. It is created by blending different clays of by adding to clays other materials, such as feldspar and flint in order to produce a desired workability, maturing temperature, or finished result. A clay body is the result of mans technology. Cobalt: One of the strongest coloring oxides used by the potter. Cobalt creates a dark dense royal blue in most cases.

  • Gilded Pinch Pots the Most Basic Means of Hand-Forming Pottery Takes a Dazzling New Direction
    Copyright © 2018 Dick Blick Art Materials All rights reserved 800-447-8192 DickBlick.com Gilded Pinch Pots The most basic means of hand-forming pottery takes a dazzling new direction. The application of gold as a decorative element is known as "gilding" and has been practiced using a variety of techniques since ancient times. Artists in China developed a means of firing gold with molten glass onto porcelain to create gilded pottery pieces that were highly prized by collectors in many nations. Later during the same century, as gilding techniques spread westward to Europe, the Baroque and Rococo decorative styles of the 18th century saw high demand for gilded porcelain tableware and figures. In modern times, the combination of ceramics and gold is still highly desirable. Ceramic artist Jennifer McCurdy creates nature-inspired sculptures from delicate formations of porcelain, then applies gold leaf to the inside. The gilding creates the illusion that the pieces are glowing from within. The most basic technique for forming a three- dimensional piece of pottery is a pinch pot. It's usually the first method a potter learns. In this lesson, students will use air-dry clay to form a small vessel, then gild a portion of it with imitation gold leaf. The result is a dramatic and rich-looking container that can be useful in many ways. GRADES K-12 Note: Instructions and materials are based upon a class size of 24 students. Adjust as needed. Preparation 1. Cut block of clay into pieces and store in zip-lock bags until ready to use.

  • Archaeological and Historic Pottery Production Sites Guidelines for Best Practice Summary
    Archaeological and Historic Pottery Production Sites Guidelines for Best Practice Summary This document provides practical guidance on how to investigate sites where pottery production has taken place. It describes how to anticipate and locate pottery production sites and the types of evidence that may be found. This document also provides advice on the available methods and strategies for examining, recording and sampling features and finds of various types at each stage of the work. The different techniques for establishing the date of pottery production, and for characterising the products of a site, are given particular emphasis. This document was compiled by Harriet White, Sarah Paynter and Duncan Brown with contributions by Joanne Best, Chris Cumberpatch, David Dawson, Peter Ellis, Jane Evans, Laurence Jones, Oliver Kent, Gareth Perry, The Prince’s Regeneration Trust, Ian Roberts, Kerry Tyler and Ann Woodward. It is one of four Historic England publications concerning industrial processes in the past, the other three being: ■ Science for Historic Industries: Guidelines for the Investigation of 17th- to 19th- Century Industries ■ Archaeological Evidence for Glassworking: Guidelines for Best Practice ■ Archaeometallurgy: Guidelines for Best Practice.
