  • A fascinating documentary film showing how British artist Victoria Ellis carves a fine bas relief figurative clay mural. The film covers the entire process, from initial design right through to the final glazed mural. On the way we see how she carves the clay using her custom-modified tools and her methods for preparing the glazes.
    More of her work can be seen on her websites: www.victoriaell...

    As a craftsman since 1993 of custom hand shaped surfboards,
    I have much appreciation the amount of time and detail in this art form, it is amazing on many levels.
    Thank you for this great time capsule of art.

    Beautiful, I used to work for Ken Mason Tile Company and really loved painting tiles, in between orders I would make my own designs on blank tiles and do portrait paintings of the other workers wives and girlfriends for them. I made fresco pieces of both of my dogs and a beautiful Mucha design that came from his unfinished works design book. I would love to have you as a teacher and learn how to do carvings such as yours they truly are amazing.

      Vic had already made her drawing and prepared the clay slab when I started filming, but the carving process took two days and the glaze painting took another day to do. So if you include the preparation it was about four days in all, I think.

    this is a true masterpiece! I'm making small geo bas relief tiles and it's sooo hard! I've nearly pierced thru the tile, its so uneven and keeps drying out! it's very stressful but addictive so I'll keep going!! I wonder do you ever use water to smooth or simply tools? I've used a small wet brush where I've gone wonky a few times. you make it look so easy bravo madam :)

    • @victoriaellis3261
      @victoriaellis3261 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Hi do keep going it just takes time really to master the depth thing! I do use a damp sponge sometimes to take the sharp edges off but mostly just tools as too much smoothing can take the detail away. Don't let it stress you out the more you relax into it the freer your hand will be. Most of all enjoy!!

      @puggilove 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Victoria Ellis thank you for taking the time to reply.

I'll aim for pleasure rather than perfection as I'm sure you have spent many years honing your skills. any other videos on technique would be awesome thank you, elizabeth x

      put your clay , into a bag / a separation/ then a wet towel. place in a cold area/cool area when not working (the wet towel will act like a humidor keeping moisture in the immediate area, slowing/ stopping the clay loosing its moisture)
