I just calculated a new version of Licorice using red art - anyone want to
try it ?
Let me know by reply to me at:

ronroy@ca.inter.net

I am curious - does the tea dust effect increase?

I'll try.

Oxidation, electric kiln.

Just curious, is there any particular advantage to a version with red art
rather than the current version with RIO?

Dear Ron,
You bet, please send it to me at alisa@clausen.mail.dk
I do not know if you saw the last tests I posted with some recipes I made
using red clay.(Glaze test for AC dark grey, light gray and semi metallic
black). I found the results to be very exciting because the surface and
color response was attractive. Three recipes, all produced a satin mat
surface, and the black is very black. Since they are based on 20 x 5, the
amount of red clay was 20% in the recipes. I like the added amount of clay
in the recipes from the iron and clay in the red clay, as it mats the
surfaces without being dry.

I would like to try the version of Licorice with Red Art, although I will
have to use my local iron rich clay, called Oldenwalder.

best regards from Alisa in Denmark

Hi Deg,

That remains to be seen - I just get these impulses to duplicate a glaze
using wildly different materials.

Part of the reason is to empress others about how useful glaze and clay
calculation is.

Some of the most useful projects I have done have been done with the help
of potters on this list - even better than in a class room. This way we get
results from many different kilns - fired in many different ways - on many
different clays. The information derived from this type of experiment is
broad - and leads to understanding in depth.

It started with some getting a tea dust effect with the original glaze - I
am thinking that the impurities in Red Art (or any low fore red clay) may
result in a more enhanced effect.
