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

my ceramic teacher had us wet our greenware twice witha sponge of water before glazing. what does that do? is it necessary to do taht?

wtf i cant see this video it says an error has occured!!

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.

"Yeah..."
Precious.
I love your sense of humor.
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.
love the decoration on the vase.
Hi Simon, What is the ratio of oxides and water you used? I'd like to try it.
Warm regards from Debbie in Florida
