Thanks for the good tips! You might like Spectrum Sangria for something orange-red. I'm just starting to learn to layer my Amaco glazes, so I got a few Spectrum floating glazes to use until I get better at the layering. Sangria and Kimchi and Autumn Purple are beautiful.
So happy to see you have a new video. thank you for taking the time to share with us. Sorry to hear about your injury, praying for a complete recovery.
Welcome back! I love the pieces in your video. I still need to learn how to layer glazes. Maybe I should just pick a couple and try??? I hope you’re completely healed 😊
Oh honey I am soo sorry to hear that you broke your hand!! Ouch!! I hurt my hand badly and it hasn’t healed, it’s been a year 1/2! I couldn’t do anything with clay for 4 months. I made a ton of pinch pumpkins though. And CONGRATULATIONS ON GETTING YOUR BLACK BELT! My husband and I own a martial arts company. Hubby teaches second grade and then karate! lol. I absolutely love the bowls! Welcome back and I’m sooo glad to see you again!! I did several mugs with the cinnabar and sandstone and they all crazed terribly! I’m sure you know this but to help the glazes not look streaky you can apply each layer on a different direction. It’s called crosshatching. The other red I like to use is mayco cordovan it’s a dark red. And of course firebrick red by amaco. I’m commenting as I watch. lol. I LOVE the muddy waters over Norse blue. I don’t think I’ve tried that!! I LOVE THE PLATTER! I’d love to know what glaze brushes you use. I’ve always used mayco fan brushes but they have gotten soo cheap!! I got the number 4 ones and you could completely see through them when you hold them up. Thanks again.
Hand injuries are no joke when it comes to being able to do pottery (and martial arts). I hope that your hand is on the mend soon! I do utilize crosshatching when working with known "streaky" glazes, but I have found that extra coverage is key for some of them. I can show my glaze brushes in my next video, but unfortunately, the manufacture info has been completely rubbed off. To be honest, I think I picked them up at Michaels a couple years ago.
I love your kiln openings and look forward to each one! Could you please let me know your firings, I know you said cone 6 --- I have had problems with pin holing lately and I bisque to 04 and fire to cone 6 with G mix Georgie's White clay simular to B mix. I haven't used preheats or holds nothing has changed just much more pin holes. Any suggestions I sure would appreciate! Thank you, Vickie :)
Hi, Vickie! I bisque to 05, usually with a 2 hour pre-heat. I fire to Cone 6, but I do have an offset worked in to my firing because my kiln tends to run hot. I hit a solid 6, sometimes slightly over when I fire with the offset. I do a 5 minute hold at the top and shut my fan off right when the kiln stops firing to allow for a natural cool down. I usually only see pin holes on pieces that have a deep texture, and then only rarely.
Very nice work !! I'm a novice and I learned a lot from you - thank you. I look forward to more videos.
Glad to see you’re back, love your glaze combination 🇨🇦
Thank you so much!

Welcome back! I can finally use some of that muddy waters glaze on the Norse blue combo. 👍
I LOVE that combo! It's the only way I use muddy waters so far. Very consistent!
Welcome baack!!
Welcome back! I love the pieces in your video. I still need to learn how to layer glazes. Maybe I should just pick a couple and try??? I hope you’re completely healed 😊
Thank you! I usually look for combos from other potters that I like, and give them a go. You never know until you try. Good luck!

Try Mayco Speckled Plum. We use it in combo with Mayco Alabaster on white clay and get very favorable results at cone 6
Thank you for the recommendation! I will be sure to check it out!
I just found you - I love your glaze combos 😊
Now I’m binge watching you lol awesome work
Thank you! Welcome to my channel!
Welcome back!! Love your pots!
Quick question, how many coats of muddy waters on your norse blue cup?
2 coats of norse blue and 2 coats of muddy waters.
When cone do you fire to? gorgeous results!
I fire to cone 6. I find that my Bmix vitrifies better at that cone and my glazes move better there as well.
I cut my cenote with Norse Blue because I find that there is just too many crystals (makes it last longer too :D)
That is a great idea!
Exactly! I put a base coat of Norse Blue and then need only ONE coat of Cenote!
I might have missed it - which clay did you use?
I use Laguna Bmix (without grog)
