------------------
In 1998 I put together on disk (with the help of a dedicated grad student) a
clay and glaze compendium listing receipes for low and high fire clay and
glazes. The compendium was sold at last years NCECA conference in Ohio and =
sold
out before the second day. I would like to make it available to Clay Art =
folks.
I have collected information for this ceramic resource book through teaching=
and
making work around the United States and abroad. The compendium is 164 pages=
and
contains over 1000 clay, glaze and slip receipes along with other =
significant
technical facts for the ceramic artist. I have collected this information =
over
the last 15 years beginning with my graduate years at Alfred. Sources =
include my
residencies at the European Ceramic Work Center, the Bemis Project, and from
workshops by contemporary artists here in the United States. There is a =
complete
table of contents and all receipes are catagorized by temperature. Sections
include clay, glaze, slips and engobes and plaster.
The cost is 20.00 which includes shipping. If you would like to order the
compendium or have questions please email me or send a check to my attention=

H Clay Art Folks,
A few of you have asked about the make up of the USC Clay and Glaze =
compendium.
The receipes in the book are catagorized by temperature, color and =
atmosphere.
Most receipes are labeled to indicate the artist who submitted or created =
the
glaze.
The index includes many notes and information from Alfred and places like
Anderson Ranch, Penland and Haystack. Recipes for porcelain, flameware, =
white
clay,stoneware, redware, colored clay and zero shrinkage bodies are =
included in
the clay section. There are notes on raw materials for clay and glazes which
give some basic facts on the materials and their uses in clay and glazes.
Glazing tips and techniques, glaze calculation and testing, notes on engobes=
and
slips is also included. Recipes for glazes are catagorized for:
ash glazes
transparent to translucent glazes
celadon glazes
tenmoku and carbon trap glazes
white and off white glazes and base glazes
black glazes
bule and green glazes
brown and yellow glazes
red, orange, adn purple glazzes
metallic glazes
shino glazes
textured glazes
majolica
It is certainly a compendium for people that have some knowledge in clay and
glazes. I have had many students and users of the book tell me they love it=
and
have gotten alot of good stuff out of it.
Hope this gives you some insight.
Thanks for asking=21
Virginia
