Hi Simon love your clips in this one where you had white glaze then used iron oxide and colbalt on top for decorations would you have then used clear glaze to finish it off. I am a novice and have only used straight glazes and am now progressing into more decorations so would value your reply. Thanks for being generous with your time and skill
I love watching what you do but it seems you rarely show the finished product. I'd really love to see this (and other projects you've done) after it's fired.
It's wonderful to see an artist go through an experience of not being fully happy with one's effort... and pass through it to continue the creative process... Not being stopped by a "mistake" or alarmed when the art expresses itself, outside of our expectation.
Thanks Simon you got my brain going in a new direction. Very interested in seeing the finished vase. Wish this video was longer ;-D Have a great day ~ Karen
Good morning, finally got a new seat on my Leach style treadle wheel, will use the foam over it like you said and I should be good to go. thanks again for the suggestion during our talk at Asheboro.
Its wonderful to see you experiment, and bring us along with you when you do. I think it will encourage me to try different decorative techniques with less fear.
(and I just love the wind chimes in the background.)
hi simon, thanks for the videos. I would love to see a series of videos that shows the entire process from choosing clay, wheel, trim, fire, glaze, final fire. thanks again, i love watching!!
The end result is very different in Oxidation verses Reduction and temp has alot to do with how these pigments all work together, also the under-over glazing right?
What I see on your website I don't get here with just Oxidation!
Colorado is very dry as well, I don't work outside with my pottery as often as I would like because of weather patterns,
don't have that wonderful work area you have either, do want to change that though!
Simon, I'm using a lot of cobalt either as a slip or as underglaze and I'd like to know in what proportion you mixed it with the Iron oxide and the manganese?(of course, I hope to see the finished result) I've never tried to put oxides over the glaze, does it make any difference? I'm firing in an electric kiln, so this might make a difference too.

I love your sense of humor.

Hi Simon, What is the ratio of oxides and water you used? I'd like to try it.
