Ceramic tiles have been used throughout the world for many centuries to provide useful and colorful accents in the home. In this five day course, participants will learn a variety of techniques for making and decorating both flat and raised relief tiles. Red earthenware clay and a vivid palette of slips (liquid clays) will be used to create several projects, including a “sampler” of small tiles suitable for use as a trivet or wall piece, decorative relief tiles, and a project of the participant’s choosing. The techniques taught in this course can be used in decorating many other ceramic forms. enrolment limited to 12.
