While browsing Claynet International I saw the work of Australian Steven
Goldate. He used a technique to decorate in which he applied water soluble
pigments to bisque ware. He uses no glaze. He said the technique was
develpoed by a Norwegian Professor Arne Ase who has written a book called
"Watercolors on Porcelain". I would appreciate any feedback regarding this
process. Thankyou Jim Horvitz Rancho Mirage Ca.

Finally going thru some Ceramic Monthly's I picked up in a used book store
and glanced at an article by Ase the other day. It was in the May 1985 issue
and he has some recipes in the article, mostly crystalline glazes. I do see
one mention made of the water-soluble colorants and techniques. Sorry,
haven't read the article, just looked at the pictures.
If you can't find the article, let me know and I'll copy for you.

Jim: I have Arne Ase's book which cost me $50 and I'm quite sure it is
now out of print. I do have some other reference material (which is at
home - I'm using a computer here at the Univ.) but I will try to get you
the information soon. I'm leaving for Mexico for a week on Tues. so if
I don't get back to you eventually I will. Some of Arne Ase's info is
quite complex and I think you could simplify it by simply using the
information I presented in my article on soluble salts in the Sept.
l996 issue of Ceramics Monthly. I have a friend (who does not own a
computer so you wouldn't be able to email him) who as done minimal
experimentation on porcelain with the soluble salts I gave him. I saw
those results and they seem fine, however, he did not get any bright
colors (I don't know what kind of color ytou are looking for) however,
browns and blues and greens are just fine. Soluble salts must be sued
with care as they can be toxic if not used carefully (avoid spraying)
(brush work is fine). Chromium chloride is impossible to get now as it
is classified as a hazardous chemical but if you have a connection with
a unviersity chemistry dept. you probably could get some. Copper,
cobalat and iron sulphates are readily available from some ceramic
supply houses.
I will get back to you, Kurt

It's a wonderfull book and I had the chance to meet Arne at a seminar
last summer. The effects are gorgeous, indeed=21 I'm looking for his
book ever since...
The book has been issued by the Norwegian University Press in 1989,
but an enquiry over there just provided the following answers: =22This
book is sold out and will not be reprinted=22... Following that, I
already tried half of the world to lay hands on it, without success.
:( I guess proud owners stick to it. If anyone sees it, I'd really
like to be informed: I'll send whatever is needed to get it myself...
Ah, the ISBN=23 is 82-00-06524-3 (=22Water Colour on Porcelain=22)
Thanks gang=21

For Watercolors on Porcelain, go to
http://yarra.vicnet.net.au/~claynet/wop.htm. It was written by Steven
Goldate and has some good images.
