Sgrafitto & fruit bowl




I returned to pottery this week after the Easter hols and a very quickly made fruit bowl was ready to collect. With making it quickly a crack has appeared which you may see on the picture, hey ho! it adds to the rustic look!

I am having a go with the Sgrafitto technique on these tiles. Using a coloured slip brushed on the tile surface, you then scrape your design through into the base clay. 
Looking forward to see how they turn out after bisque firing.
