  • Here are the Mason stains that I've catalogued so far in Glazy.  Each of these stains has accompanying glaze tests, and many have colored clay body tests as well.  Although there are still colors missing, I hope that this resource makes it easier for you to select a color. BTW if you have missing colors and want to send 10 grams of each to me, let me know, and I will add them!  Even old, archived colors are welcome. To view these Mason stains with glaze and slip color examples, just search Glazy materials: https://glazy.org/u/glazyadmin/materials?keywords=mason (Link in bio) #theglazyproject #craft #glaze #glazes #glazerecipes #glazetest #ceramics #pottery #ceramicglazes #glazechemistry #glazechem #glazecalc #umf #glazy
  • Just added another 7 sets of Mason stain tests, each set with stain at 8%, 4% and 2% additional using volumetric blending in a 30ml syringe.

  • More photos, please!  For some reason the ceramics companies we rely on the most often have poor photos of their products.  Yes, characteristics like firing temperature, handling properties, and shrinkage are all important.  But ceramics is largely a VISUAL medium! Having just arrived at a new studio and without access to some of my regular materials, I decided I'd stock up on some prepared @lagunaclay.  But it was difficult to get a feel for the color and texture of Laguna clay bodies from the images on their website.  So I bought a sample box and prepared these test tiles.  They were bisqued to cone 08, glazed with two strips of different clear glaze, and then fired to Orton cone 6.  I then took color-corrected, high-resolution photos of each tile and put them together in this image. The high-resolution image can be downloaded from the Glazy Wiki:  https://wiki.glazy.org/t/laguna-clays/ (Link in bio) Top: Celadon Clear (https://glazy.org/recipes/20754) Middle:  Laura Speirs Clear (https://glazy.org/recipes/21102) Bottom: Unglazed #lagunaclay #theglazyproject #craft #glaze #glazes #glazerecipes #glazetest #ceramics #pottery #ceramicglazes #glazechemistry #glazechem #glazecalc #umf #glazy
  • Today @artaxis has released 30 videos for Artaxis Conversations 2019, in conjunction with National Clay Week. I’ve made a couple tutorial videos and an “Introduction to Glazy” video that I hope you’ll check out!
