Glaze test #5

Hello!!!!!!! Again I am sorry for not posting anything for a while!!! For some reason it's hard for me to remember to do this everyday! Anyways. I have another glaze test to share with ya'll! This one comes from Lana Wilson! It's a really cool glaze! I think its best to use on sculptural works rather then on functional, in that its rough. I did this on two bodies of clay, a white and a red. The white, I put a thin application on and with the red, I did a very thick application. The glaze is called a chartreuse moss. You can kind of see the chartreuse under all the other colors in the glaze. This glaze should be brushed on, it goes on really well if brushed on. I really like the look of this glaze!

Glaze test #4

Hello!!!! I'm sorry I had to take time away from this project, I really am! Anywoo. I'm back! The glazes I'm sharing tonight, are ones that I am in love with. The first one is a Tom Bartel glaze, its a crawl glaze, so it's kind of like the lichen glazes I had shared before, and the other I think I've already shared, the green one on top of the lichen glaze. Tom's crawl glaze is much like the lichen glaze, if you put it on to thick, it will pop off a vertical surface, but if you put it on a flat surface, it will spread out while staying on the flat surface. When I tested this, I put the crawl glaze on thick and let it do it's thing, then I added a top glaze after it had been fired. The results that I got from this testing were AWESOME! The Tom Bartel glaze underneath the top glaze almost looks like its just a shell of the glaze, but its not, and the top glaze almost has a hint of brown in it, even though there is no brown in the glaze.

Glaze test #3

For those who are counting, this is glaze test number 3! Well actually its glaze test number eight, its another one of those two and one things. But that's not the point! Both of these glazes I have used and have had excellent results! The first glaze is the MNO lichen while the other is a glaze is a fantastic matt glaze. I found both online. I first put the lichen glaze down and fired it, then I put the matt glaze on top. When I put the matt glaze on top, the parts of the lichen that came through the matt, turned brown!
