From the left:
Perkins Red with the Zinc still in the recipe over raw clay body not as =
much purple as I planned
50% Soda Spar and 50 % Woodash still will not behave
Perkins Red without Zinc, over 50% Ball Clay, 50% Kaolin slip, - not =
as much red as I planned
Sprayed Ruitle over sprayed McKenzie Tenmoku over sprayed native slip - =
pretty drippy, but the rutile looks like gold flashing
Perkins Red over 50% Ball Clay, 50% Kaolin slip - not as much red as I =
planned (again)
Reitz Green
Dry Barium Matt will not behave

What happens when you put a cone 10 in the sitter, then go watch the =
football game
For better or worse
From the left:
The orange glaze recently posted by Steve Irvine- dipped
The orange suggested by Mel - Rhodes 32 with 1% Iron and 3% Rutile - not =
very orange - dipped
Might work as a base glaze for brush work
The red is back - that's Perkins with Zinc over the Alfred porcelain mix =
recently discussed here- dipped
I get the feeling that it won't turn red over 50% Kaolin 50% Ball =
clay - too much iron in the ball clay?
Of course it continues to try to run off the pot if you apply it =
thick enough to get the color
Behind it is John Jelfs Ochre Ash that variegates between ochre and =
brown in electric too sprayed
McKenzie Tenmoku over native yellow slip to give more orange when it =
breaks dipped
Two more Reitz Green which breaks blue over white slip and black over =
stoneware sprayed and dipped
And last - Nuka - which is so hard to get right I'm about to dump it =
dipped
Too thin and the body shows through - too thick and it's a bulge

The glaze didn't heal the "S" crack
I thought I was being real cute by using Wert's Shino with Silicon =
Carbide to reduce inside a vessel
All I got was coal miner's spittle ( right)
