This one is excerpted from his DVD Making Marks: Ceramic Surface Decoration, a video adaptation of his popular book of the same name.

In this clip, Robin goes over a couple of surface decoration techniques; one involving clay slip and fiber, and the other involving soft clay. As usual, Robin provides an excellent, clear explanation of these nifty little techniques and should inspire you to go directly to your studio at the first opportunity! - Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
