Description
This course explores glaze, color, and design on ceramic tile. Students work with preliminary drawings and paper studies progressing to a series of handmade ceramic tiles. They investigate one technical approach to the glazed surface such as slips and glazes or tin-glaze majolica, and they strategize about tile layout using imagination and traditional perspectives of historical tile design.
