You've taught me a lot, but I still have one persistent problem. When I use
a blue stain or underglaze under a clear glaze, there is some running of the
color on edges or the crest of curves. I work in a drawing/watercolor
technique, and on a flat surface the brushwork is fine. I've been using the
following glaze from Clayart and Will Edwards. I like it because it does not
craze on the Bmix, all colors fire true, and drips smooth over in the firing.
I have tried mixing my underglazes with EPK and it helps some. Could anyone
suggest another clear glaze for Bmix - that does not craze - or suggest
changes for this glaze? Other secrets? I'm willing to test if someone could
point me in the right direction.

Merry Christmas from Arizona. Yes, it really is cold here tonight.
Thanks, Carol Baker
