In Topic: Blues and greens

Posted 15 Jun 2013

I always kind of thought the blue/green thing was a myth. Do those colors really sell better? I haven't found any of either in a glaze that does much for me, so I wouldn't know . I have an idea that someday I will find a recipe for a mid range light gray/green matte glaze, but until I come across it (anyone out there have the magic recipe?), I will stick to my blacks, whites and browns. I think if the pot looks good, it looks good, period. I try not to worry too much about "rules", unless they are technical or practical...
In Topic: B- mix 5 chips easily

Posted 8 Jun 2013

I use Laguna B- mix too. Is there a different brand? Maybe I just threw a few items too thinly, or my family is abnormally clumsy. Both are quite possible.

Marcia, what is this world wide directory of residencies you speak (write) of?
In Topic: Bloating

Posted 2 Jun 2013

I use primarily B-mix 5 but I don't fire it as hot. I do fire to witness cone 6 but I know that my kiln fires a little cool. I've fired it to cone 5 before too and it was vitrified. Why not go to 5 and see what happens?

well, since nobody has actually DONE anything i guess i will list it on EBAY. i had hoped to get it to someone interested in it but found no ACTION. talk is not action.

i am actively trying to sell my house before the poverty train hits me squarely in the face. sitting on a railroad track is scary so i am taking some definite steps to sell before the train comes along. the train is named "Why are we still paying pensions to old folks. Lets stop."

getting rid of items is important since i must dismantle my studio so the space looks "normal" for buyers. i don't have time to list on ebay, maybe i will give it to our library.
