Triaxial Blends: Ceramics Lesson

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

To me, art implies color. Your class can learn all about triaxial blends, glazed colors, and ceramics. Included are the step-by-step instructions needed to teach learners how ceramic glazes developed, color blends, and how to measure and use them. Pupils create a set of ceramic tiles using triaxial blends of glaze colors.
