Artists that use Relief Surface Decoration on their work: Artist #3:William Shinn

William Shinn shows you how to create repeating designs with rolling stamps. The use of stamps dates back to the early Greek potters who used small rolls of clay that had been carved on the surfaces to produce repeated patterns on their freshly thrown forms. With the increased interest in handbuilt, press-molded and extruded forms, the possibilities for texturing flat surfaces with rolling stamps on a larger scale can be more thoroughly explored.
