At the college I attend we have a clear glaze called Georgia Clear, when put over Helios clay and fired in a cone 10 reduction it gives a very very light greenish blue color. That glaze looks awesome over chattering. If you are interested in the recipe contact me.

When I was in college we had something that sounded similar called shadow blue. But I do not fire cone 10 anymore. its nice to be in school. Are you a ceramics major

Tim are you a teacher or do you like to do this for fun? I personally think that you should be doing both. I took ceramics and pottery in senior year of high school in 06 & 07 and loved it. I took ceramics in college this past summer and loved it. I don't know why, but when I work with clay, I feel like I'm in my own little world, you know. do you ever feel that way when you work on pieces?

[timseepots]

Well I teach potter classes but am trained to be an artist. I do both everyday. Not so much my own world but a small world that I share with the people that see and own my work.

Hey Tim - nice video. Don't forget tho - lots of us are beginners and many times tools accidentally end up on the floor. Bison tools break when dropped and need to be professionally sharpened by the maker - probably not great for us beginners seeing they're so expensive. Nice chatter pot, though!

Im not a very safe potter but I have had my bison for a whole year in many places and have yet to come close to dropping it. when you have something that special you take care of it. it has a nest near my wheel i give it worms and it will trim all day. but your right not for new people to clay but for the rest of us it is a nice treat.

just ordered a bison!

video idea: pitchers, boulbous round forms, lidded bowls/cassorol type stuff

intensive graduate school has kept me from spending much time on you tube. But, I'm finally catching up on your videos. Sounds like I need to get me a Bison tool. You should have gotten a free one from doing this video!

I am an elementary education major and I think I'm going to minor in ceramics. I don't know yet, still getting my A.A. degree. I am definitely going to continue with my study in ceramics even after I have graduated. I enjoy it far to much to go any extended period of time without doing it. Besides, I hate selling my stuff, I'd totally starve if I just did ceramics!

Hi there,

I would be very interested in a video about glazing such decorations as the chattering decoration, indentations or scratched patterns. What kind of glaze do you use to make the decoration come through ?

Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge !!

All the best,

Sibylle
