I would like to decal onto my sculptures. I know that raku method would ruin
the metallic colors when I fire the decals on afterward. Has anyone used
sagger method as a surface for decal application?...or would a glossy glaze
be my only choice? I would like to raku using a white crackle..thinking the
breaking of the decal image would be neat but I would lose any/all reduction
in heavy metals glazes used.
