Art Background for Slides

This art background for slides sketches sculpting and pottery tools on a clean white canvas. A clay modeling tool, a potter’s wheel and a wire armature appear as fine line-art drawings at the edge of each slide. The lines stay thin and small, so your artwork, steps and critiques have room to breathe. Choose it for ceramics classes, sculpture critiques, art school portfolios and studio workshops, and it works as an art PowerPoint background too.

Features:

  • Line-art sculpture details: modeling tool, potter’s wheel, wire armature and model frame
  • 5 background layouts: object on the left, right or bottom, plus two diagonal corner versions
  • White and pale blue color palette with fine line-art drawing
  • About 80% clean space for titles, text, charts and diagrams
  • Widescreen 16:9 format (1856×1056 JPG)
  • Works in PowerPoint, Google Slides and Keynote
