CR1350: Introduction to Ceramic Tile

Students learn to create ceramic tiles while experimenting with various methods of tile production and surface effects. In addition to understanding the process of glaze mixing, the class explores bisque and glaze firing, bisque slabs, plaster press molds, carving, modeling, slip trailing, scraffito, and stenciling. To complement the studio work, slide lectures show the historic and contemporary uses of tile and pattern in architecture.
