I have created this bank of videos for my students to use in my visual arts class. The videos are tailored to exactly what we are learning and working on in class each day. They can be used as a resource for students as they work on their projects, and also are a great resource for anyone creating with these types of materials.
If the glaze are unfired, you can just wash it off and when completely dry, paint. If the piece has already been fired, the glaze is permanent. You can use fine sandpaper to texture the glaze and then paint on it though.
This video has enlightened me! I feel that I have transcended to become a far superior human being that can be expected of me. Thank you for helping me grow and develop into the greatest version of myself that could possibly exist, may God bless you!
can you share where you got your stilts from? when I use a stilt it leaves metal marks on the bottom. I need new stilts that don't do that! also what is your favorite brand of clear glaze? thanks
I use Amaco clear glaze, I believe it is the LG 10. The stilts came from my local shop, Krueger Pottery in St.Louis (they have an on-line shop). If you are getting stilt marks, you can use a fire brick to "sand" down the stilt nubs to smooth it out
Thank you for posting this! I have problems getting hot glue to work for me with cardboard. It always seems to come right off after it cools. I'm going to try this out with the tabs and see if that works better for me. 🙂
I have been happy with this extruder, the only downside is the bottom plate gets bent out of shape after lots of use. Because of that I might be inclined to try a different brand when I end up needing to replace
Hi JoAnne...can you tell me what size gage that you are using for your wee animal and is that aluminum wire? I love this tutorial BTW! Thank you! C :-) x
Hopefully you see this soon, I am in a pinch. I painted bisque plates with Amaco gloss glaze and wonderglaze. I fired at cone 6. I now want to clear glaze the whole plate. Will that alter the coloring that was originally fired??
Usually clear will not change the original color of an under glaze. However when clear is applied to a colored gloss glaze, it can have an impact on the final color. This especially true for specialty glazes with matte or semi gloss finishes. I would recommend doing a test title to see the result first.
I love the idea of using the small cutout cardboard piece to strengthen the connection. That will be very useful in my sons cardboard fort build. Thank you
Great tutorial! Thank you for the various methods you showed. I have a question. How do you seal the joined as well as the exposed edges of the cardboard to look neat so you can't tell it's actually cardboard? I want to paint my cardboard project but the edges look untidy and you can tell that it's cardboard. Once again, thank you so much xx
Brilliant explanation , thxs much , I look at.many other video from others but it just take me in circle and I did not understand nothing because their explanation were very poor and just can't come to the point , now with Your explanation I gain a lot of knowledge and tips about glazing Pottery Thxs much ..Stay Bless
When i paint my works with underglaze paints and use transparent glaze, cracks occur on them. I mean, the transparent glaze cracks after firing. Can you give me any hints to stop that?
