Bring a unique textured touch to your creations with Curtis Texture Paste - Neutral. Developed by renowned ceramic artist Eddie Curtis, this versatile product can be used alone or combined with porcelain slip to create a variety of organic, textured surfaces. Curtis Texture Paste - Neutral is the base product to which other pre-coloured texture pastes can be added to give a wide range of tonal results depending on the mix ratio. The coloured pastes are very strongly coloured and not designed for stand alone use but as a mix for use with the neutral paste. Due to the variety of firing schedules, kilns and other firing factors, there are a number of possible colour outcomes for each paste.
This paste can be used to create texture in a neutral tone.
Usage
Ideally used with a stiff brush, flat wooden tool or palette knife. Apply paste directly to soft or leather hard clay creation. Build up areas of varying thickness with your tools to create a textured pattern. To maintain structure rapidly dry surface with heat such as a blow torch or heat gun. Once paste is dry and firm to touch, you can brush a layer or Porcelain slip on top. Experiment with varying thicknesses to achieve your desired result. Thin layers will allow more of the underlying colour to be visible.
