A clay print is started by building a slab of clay in a wood frame and allowing the clay to become leather hard. Colored slips are applied and textures are embedded and carved into the surface of the clay. A substrate of polyester interfacing is placed over the design and hand pressure is applied. A thin layer of colored clays adhere to the substrate. The print is permanently bonded to the surface which becomes a multi-colored archival, monotype distinguished by it’s velvety surface and rich color!
There is nothing like it!
