Week 6 Readings
1. The “Portfolio Pack”
1.1. 2-minute Practice: Write one perfect caption
Choose any ceramic image (yours or a public object). In 2 minutes, write one caption (max 20 words) that includes:
-
what it is
-
material/technique (simple)
-
one visible feature (shape/surface)
REVEAL (Model answer):
“Handbuilt stoneware vase with a narrow neck and matte glaze, showing carved linear texture around the shoulder.”
Quick check: Does your caption avoid guessing dynasty or value?
