4 new glazes
The Draper Senior Center's soup bowl fund raiser was so successful this past November, we are already planning for this November. Since we will be making 100 bowls this time around, we need a good supply of glazes. And that is what I recently ordered. Its almost like Christmas again! It is great to discuss other glazes and all things pottery with other potters because that is where I learned of Seattle Pottery Supply and their glazes. (You would never know how good their glazes are from their web site images, however.) Upper left and continuing clockwise is Mottled Dark Blue, Shadow Green, Burnt Orange and Brown Mottled. They are very paintable and stable at cone 5/6 although all but Shadow Green can be fired at 04. More tests to be done, always! The overlaps show potential for color variations. The random spots and rim are Laguna's Colonial White which I find plays nicely with others. Lol. This is more fun than I should be allowed to have. Now to make more bowls.
