Omeka

For the ground she uses mediapan boards (groundwood panels), natural wood panels (from walnut wood) or pieces of wood she finds on the seashore. She paints mediapan base with acrylic paints, the natural wood with linen oil. The wood debris is left in its natural condition First, she draws the shapes on paper and cuts them out, then she puts them on the rolled clay and uses a sharp little knife to cut the shape out of the clay. Then she engraves an ornament on each piece. When the clay is almost air- dried, she patinates it with linseed oil. She then assembles the pieces into a complete motif on a wooden base and glues them. Then she paints the pieces with acrylic paints. All the stages of making the relief are carried out by hand, so that each product is unique.
