Many years ago, I took a class at Ohio State University and Kathy King came for a visiting artist workshop. The workshop was a lot of fun and it was the first time I ever played around with the sgraffito technique. So I was excited to reunite with Kathy a few weeks ago at the Potters Council Splendid Surfaces Conference and shoot some video of her presenting some tips and techniques for successful sgraffito. Today, lucky readers, I am presenting that video. So have a look, get out some sharp tools, and start scratching! - Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
