Mishima and Sgraffito

Sgraffito in my own words- it a form of art made by laying coats of underglaze and scratching away

Mishima in my own words- is painting on a clay surface with underglaze

sprigging is basically a technique for decorating pottery with low relief shapes made separately from the main body and applied to it before firing.

slip trailing is the application to a clay surface of lines of slip using a fine-pointed dispenser.

impressed texture is a method that you can use to add texture to your artwork when the clay is wet to add more detail.
