1 Grade 10 Ceramics Unit 2: Slab Building, textured rollers and stamps

2 Sarah Pike

3 Textured Roller

4 Considerations in hand building:
-the seams – do you blend them out completely or leave the join standing out Breath in the vessel – add roundness from the inside

5 Rolling out the slab Roll your slab out onto a clean cement board using the wood sticks as a guide to get even thickness Add texture as the slab is drying out a bit. You can’t use it right away because it the clay will be too soft and it will slump instead of standing up.

6 Adding texture Clay will show any texture that is rolled into it
You can use a roller or stamp that you make, objects from nature such as wood, shells, leaves... Manufactured objects such as fabric, lace...

7 The Pattern Think about what you want to make and draft a pattern out of paper. Make sure that the pieces fit together

8 Make sure that you 1) slip and score joins 2) cut the join at the appropriate angle (usu 45 degrees)
