Perhaps the most exciting part of the ceramic process is surface decoration, and in this 4th and final installment of the Teaching Clay in the Classroom video series, Jeni Hansen Gard focuses on just that! Many K-12 art teachers are asked to teach the complex subject of ceramics with only an introductory ceramics class under their belts. This presentation is the perfect next step and covers a wide variety of decorating techniques that will help students make expressive, personalized work.
