Constructing and Deconstructing Functional Ware with Elaine Pinkernell

Elaine shows how to make a ripped up textured mug with tar paper. "I treat clay as if it were fabric used in a quilt. Each piece begins as soft slabs of contrasting colored clays which are torn apart and textured. My texture tools range from clay stamps which I create to imported Indian wood cuts to everyday objects like bits of wood, buttons, screwdrivers, a meat tenderizer, and more. The textured pieces are assembled back into a single sheet of clay like a puzzle. This sheet is then used to create a geometric shape with the help of a tar paper temlate. The result is a boldly refined form made playful by its richly dressed up surface. The addition glazes into the textures enlivens the piece with color and contrast." www.elainepinkernell.com
