something about CLAY5 (drawing)


Roll clay onto a print paper to create a piece of clay paper, the chosen of print paper because it sucks water very fast, can make thin clay layer steady.


The rolling process is slow and careful, the scale of the paper let I roll the clay block by block rather than a whole one, so it need cover all the joints. 


Try to keep the surface eventually otherwise after dried very easy to crack from the thinner parts.



Cover all the spots and corners, even out of edges.

Let it dry a while then turn it over, measure the scale with the help of pen and ruler, in the precess of rolling, some parts of print papaers moisted and bracked.

Leave clay paper to open space over night, then tear off the print paper, done.


clay pattens...







Try to combine clay with wax on clay paper.
