What is Curtis Texture Paste?
A decorative textured ceramic coating developed by ceramic artist Eddie Curtis. Used independently, or in conjunction with an overcoat of porcelain slip, it can be used to give a wide range of organic like textured surfaces.
The importance of experimentation
The results achieved with Curtis Texture Paste are almost endless. It strongly encourages experimentation and a ‘let’s see what happens’ approach. The combination of unexpected hues and variations of colour are a very exciting prospect for adventurous, ambitious students of texture! We advise that you practice and experiment with a variety of techniques and tools to achieve desired results.
Firing Range
Curtis currently uses a ‘flame fired’ kiln and fires the works in a reduction atmosphere to stoneware temperatures of around 1300°c. Oxidised electric firings will of course present a new set of parameters for development and experimentation.

Pink-Copper – creates varying shades of pink depending on the strength of the application and thickness of overlying porcelain coating.
Very dark, almost black, metallic – use neat to achieve a very dark metallic colour.
