3. (quote-book), but did you know that this technique has other applications? With leather-hard clay you can incise (cut into) the clay surface. (..) To make smooth lines in a raw-glazed surface, first cover the area with liquid wax. Then, using any sharp-edged tool, scratch through the wax and into the glaze, pressing deeply enough to reveal the clay body underneath(nb..). When the piece is fired, the wax will burn off and the glaze will pull back from the sgraffito scratches to reveal the underlying clay.

I think I am guided by intuition or my own response to each piece as I decorate it, rather than by any conscious outside influence.
