Hi,
Just got back from a week in Lanzarote with my 10yr old daughter =
(leaving son and husband at home, - oops) =20
And catching up with general stuff on clayart.

It strikes me that those of you who are having trouble glazing your =
forms should be looking to design work that you can glaze effectivly, by =
the methods that are available to you , rather than make what you fancy, =
and then be frustrated because you cant glaze it in an appropriate =
manner.
Also, other substances can be rolled around bowls as practice, try =
gravy, custard, sauces, even just washing up water can be controlled and =
observed.
It is all relevant.
Just keep doing it.
Glazing is almost the best bit.
I love it.

Best Wishes,
Pat Southwood
