Ceramic Plates

The plate painting course has both a design component and a practical aspect. The course teaches design analytical skills using examples from various traditional ceramics. These are then used as a basis for informing design choices leading to practical painting. A basic understanding of bisque-ware ceramics and the use of under-glaze techniques is taught, together with kiln use. The students will produce test samples on tile-ware and an under-glaze painted plate.
