I am in love with the surfaces of Jen Allen's pots (not to mention the forms!). While each of the techniques in today's clip stands on its own beautifully, they are magnificent when combined.
In this clip, an excerpt from her video Darted & Decorated, Jen shows how she creates a subtle brushstroke texture with an engobe, and then layers glaze-trailed patterns on top. - Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
This clip was excerpted from Darted & Decorated, which is available in the Ceramic Arts Network Shop!
