Many potters use paper templates for ceramics so they can make a form consistently over and over. Nancy Zoller came up with a great idea that combines the texturing step with the templating step in her slab-construction process. She made ceramic templates in the size and shape of each wall of a slab built vase with the texture already on them. In this post, Nancy demonstrates how her ceramic templates do double duty serving as a texture tool and a sizing tool in a great slab clay project. Smart!

Hace unos años, alguien me dijo una vez que diferentes materiales podían transmitir diferentes emociones. En su nueva serie, titulada Poison, DarkAngelØne prueba que esta afirmación también es aplicable a la era digital.
