sgraffito tile

For this project we were asked to create a design that we would later be putting onto a clay tile. For my project I decided to make a tree with carved out lines. In the beginning of this project we were asked to make sure there was an even distribution fo black and white, I believe mu artwork showed this evenly and well. But, personally I really didn't like how my design came out after it had been in the kiln. I think if I were to go back would change my design to something different. This is because my tree and the branches coming off of the tree just came to a stop and to my I thought it was quite odd and didn't look very well. After we had completely carved out the clay into the object we wanted it to be we put some glaze on it to add some color, I decided to add some pink which now that I'm looking back on was a really bad decision because trees are not pink they are green and brown usually.
