Did you see our demo video last week?
It was about how to apply glaze using a brush. I find that many
questions have been asked have been about glazing so I thought I'd
launch a glaze series. Over the next couple of weeks (or longer if
need be) The Ceramic Shop will be creating demonstrations based on
different glazing techniques and things we feel you should know. If
you have any question we are more than happy to hear them because we
want to answer as many questions as possible.
I feel perhaps I was hasty in jumping
straight into applying glazes last week, so this week we are going to
be taking a little step back. I would like to cover the basics from
testing glazes, applying glazes and what precautions to take to keep
your pieces looking fabulous while not destroying your kiln. It is
my goal by the end of this to inform you on useful techniques and
products that will make glazing less of a stress and more of a
pleasure.
So sit tight, stay tuned and all that
jazz; I hope you're ready to learn about glazes because August is
going to be a month about glazing. Leave us a comment on our
Facebook or our videos and I will make sure all your questions get
answered!
