- First, you roll out a slab and then take a mold and put the slab around it
- Carefully, cut around the edges, making sure you aren't getting to close to the mold.
- Let your piece dry in front of a fan and once it starts to form the shape of the mold begin to remove the clay from the mold very carefully!
- Once you removed the mold you are then ready to begin painting your pinch pot. (Paint three layers in different directions)
- Take the picture you chose and trace it in pen on to your sgraffito mold, on you are finished tracing you can then being to start scratching away your picture on your mold.
- A succesful sgraffito will take time and focus. Be careful when you are scratching away and make sure to not dig to deep into your mold. On top of this, you want to focus on having a 50/50 contrast of black and white on your sgraffito.
