Ceramic Review: Masterclass with Adrian Bates 

Thank you

Thank you

Thanks

Doubt it, nice story tho 😆

@@FatScrub Your thoughts tell a lot about your self, and nothing about the person, you are assuming things about.

@@CONEHEADDK cuck?

@@FatScrub Nope - competent as hell. At very many things.. Maybe a friend can tell you, how it feels...

Thank you.

Thanks.

Ashraf Hanna raku clay fired to stoneware (not porcelain). Timing and clay preparation is everything with clay!

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Thanks Kim, much appreciated

Thanks. Happy to share!

🙏

Thank you.

You’re welcome.

There is only one side…❤

Thanks. Super important when you're spending so much time in the process…

Oh yes, they’re stoneware fired. Almost impossibly fragile if not fired!

Many thanks

Thanks

Possibly (though I’d personally be reluctant!). Porcelain paper clay might be best.

In the video, he mentions temperature and the word stoneware. That makes me think it is stoneware. Hope this helps.

Thanks. This particular clay has a very wide firing range and super warp resistance…

Thanks heather

Thanks; glad you like the work.

Thanks. My pleasure…

Thanks; you’re welcome!

Thank you.

At 0:32 he says how he fires the work at 1200 degrees C once it has air dried, so the piece is vitrified

​@@adrianomaly1760 no he said he uses raku clay and fires it unglazed to 1200 degrees to fully vitrified but there's nothing to suggest he doesn't fire twice as per usual.

Thank you.

Gladstone G602, thanks

I hope you’ve continued working with clay - it is incredibly versatile!

ThankYou

@@shaash5236 The clay body has 52 % molochite, therefore you can push the clay to its limits structurally and thermatically

Sounds good. Thanks :-)

Thanks!

It is isn't it?!

Thanks!

Thank you.

!

Sticking clay together needs moisture, but joining shapes together means they need to be stiff enough to hold their shape… good luck with your making!

Thanks.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Your sense of style is not very good.

What the hell does your comment contribute? If your are gonna say that at least dig deep and say why you don't like it, WHAT you dont like about it? What would you do different? How would you do it differently? How would you achieve that? What does it trigger in you that is offputting? I believe that I would much rather a piece of work illicit something in me that makes me viscerally dislike it, make me HATE IT than feel nothing about it at all. It is ugly TO YOU! It is pulling something out of YOU. TAKE THAT AS A CHALLENGE DONT JUST PUT DOWN HIS WORK AS A FAILURE TAKE UP THE REIGNS AND TAKE IT AS A CHALLENGE THATS BEEN ISSUED TO YOU AS AN ARTIST. IT LIT A SPARK. THAT PIECE WAS FOR HIM. HE MADE IT BECAUSE SOMETHING IN HIM SPARKED IT. HE DOESN'T CARE THAT YOU THINK ITS UGLY BECAUSE HE PROBABLY MADE A SHOTLOAD OF MONEY OFF OF IT AND PEOPLE FILMING MASTERCLASSES ABOUT HIS WORK. YOU'RE JUST SOME RANDOM TROLL ON THE INTERNET TALKIN SHIT. SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? JUST TALK SHIT? OR BE INSPIRED?

I believe you are mistaken, look again.

Luckily we're all different, so what appeals to some doesn't to others…

Thanks
