Love this technique! I am new to ceramics and didn't know about this method. Thanks Diana, I'm going to try it.

It's too bad she doesn't show the Mishima method using wax resist. You get a cleaner line, and I am sure she is familiar with this technique.

This is a great demo. I liked seeing how to use the different tools and found objects to make marks.
