Clay Chair
I posted the video on how to make clay bamboo. The new post will be on how to make a clay chair. Here it is with clay draped and sculpted over a stuccoed armature. Next, I will cut clay into tiles, bisque and glaze them, and then thin set the tiles back onto the stuccoed armature. As soon as I can have the video I will post it. It may take 3 weeks to complete.
Here is the image of the chair today after cutting the draped clay into tiles.

Tiles ready for glazing
Glazing tiles, almost to the end. In about four days I’ll be able to put it all together.
Hand Built Clay Construction
This video is educational. It shows the steps for making a hand built two part ceramic sculpture. If you would like to see more of my art work, please visit my web site.
