(20 pts) Criteria 2- Elements Texture- at least 3 different surface textures are created. Space- at least 3 “levels” of 20-18 18-16 16-14 12 or below depths are created using the additive and substractive methods. Color- glaze is applied thoughtfully and successfully. (20 pts) Criteria 3- Principles Unity- Composition of Elements work together as one, Emphasis/Balance – distribution 20-18 18-16 16-14 12 or below of visual weight appears stable. Pattern- is created through repetition of shape, line, texture (20 pts) Criteria 4- Effort took time to develop idea, 20-18 18-16 16-14 12 or below worked hard, completed project and used art time wisely to work to potential (20 pts) Criteria 5- Craftsmanship: Neat, clean and complete, skillful 20-18 18-16 16-14 12 or below use of art tools and media. (20 pts) Total Points: Your Total Teacher (100 pts) Total</p><p>Grade:</p><p>Ceramics Clay Tiles Natalie Blake </p><p>Contemporary Tile Artist</p><p>Two Methods of sculpting: 1. Additive-placing more clay onto the tile 2. Subtractive-taking clay away from the tile </p><p>Three Handbuilding Techniques: 1.Coils- rolling a rope of clay, 2. Slab- rolling a pancake of clay, 3. Pinching/Forming- </p><p>To create your tile: 1. Roll a ½” thick slab of clay, dimensions 81/2” x 81/2”. 2. Roll your paper template onto the slab, cut out the clay square and transfer design onto clay. 3. Using subtractive/additive methods and the handbuilding techniqes of coils, slabs and pinching/forming, carve and build your tile using at least 3 different textures and creating at least 3 layers of depth. 4. Focus on creating a visually balanced composition using line and shape to create patterns and textures within the tile. Tile should feel unified, and may or may not have a focal point (emphasis) 5. When attaching clay to clay, be sure to use the “3- S’s”, score(scratch), slip(clay glue) and smear(rub pieces together) </p>
