How To Make Rice Paper Underglaze Transfers
Thank you! Great art work. Im going to have to try. Do you put a clear glaze over before firing? Can you use those images again or is it a one and done?
Great teaching video. Many thanks for your time.
Just found this!!! Treat video, easy to follow!!
What kind of clay do you use?
How fun! Thanks! Am going to share this with my students. Aloha
Wow you are so prepared. Thank you. I can tell you've been a Teacher!
Your work is beautiful and classic. I really like your style! Now to find some cone 6 ox slip recipes!❤️
I think I just saw my answer…. Essentially slip on slip with a clear over glaze. Thank you. Do you paint the color layers on or pour?
Excellent video. However… How do you get the color contrast etc? The white on green or blue, is the top glaze just breaking over the slip?

I love it! Great detailed video without annoying music! She's a real artist!
may i ask why do you use the gardening vinegar? thanks
Hi Devra, I reached out to Roberta and this is what she said: “The reason I use gardening vinegar is that it has a very high acid content and is almost like glue for clay. I get fewer cracks and have more confidence in the joins.” I hope that answers your question!
good morning.. thanks .. i am a greenhorn at pottery and want to try to make a teapot…. can i ask for the templates for this teapot .. @@oregonpottersassociation
Excellent job❤
Thank you!
Brilliant work. Making things rough instead of smooth can be very appealing like this monster. Finished piece is realy an eyecatcher in the house. I like it very much 👍
Awesome you have your own monster! And thanks for watching!
It was a wonderful event! Deb, thank you so much for putting it all together! And thank you, Rebecca for doing this video! I’d love to find another local place in Tigard to do another one sometime!! Thank you again, one and all!!
Thank you Susan - glad you liked it! It was a fun event and one I’d like to do again too. =)
Thanks for sharing
You are welcome - thanks for watching!
Really nice video. Thank you for sharing your expertise!
Thank you!
Wonderful content. Thank you for sharing your decades of experience!
Same goes with o power steering on older cars or farm equip like tracter.mower speed makes turning easier..
Great demo. Will try. Love your sense of humor. There is a kind of a Portland vibe which is nice
Thanks for watching!
Excellent video thanks
thanks for watching!
but can one fire said found objects?
I believe he adds the metal pieces after the sculpture has been fully fired.
Wondering what is the exact size of the pieces. Beautiful work
Thank you for posting this!
our pleasure - thanks for stopping by and watching! ❤
Clever and meticulous work!
Great descriptive word for his Steampunk mugs - thanks for watching!
Thank you for your tips!
Thanks for watching!
Crazy good! Held my breath several times! Lol!
Thanks!!
Clearly a master potter and excellent teacher. Taking the clay to the brink of collapse. Porcelain is the most challenging clay to work with. I bow to your mastery of putting a slip on raw clay! Thank you so much for sharing your experience and talent!
Thanks for watching!
So I never saw you add any water to the transfer when applying to the moist clay you just rubbed it onto the clay correct?
Yes, it's best when the clay is perfectly leather hard neither too wet or dry. If your clay has dried out try sponging some water on lightly either directly to the area you are applying or over the top of the transfer. This is not ideal as sometimes it can smear the "ink" or cause the paper to tear. Use water sparingly and carefully.
I look forward to ordering a bunch of your clay from Georgie's
I don’t feel so bad now! 😆😂😆😂 My poor husband is learning to throw pottery. Some months back, he was able to clear out about half of our barn (it is one of those smaller barns with metal sides that most people keep a lawn tractor & other implements of landscaping & garden destruction tools) so I could setup a small studio. I don’t have a kiln, tho I desperately want one. He watches me throw pots a lot, then he gives it a go. Trouble is, I’m left hand dominate & he is right hand dominate. Most right handers throw with the wheel spinning counter clockwise; lefties do so with wheel spinning clockwise. Then there is the using of opposite hand placement; hwr, to be fair, I do have some movements that are considered as throwing in the middle meaning both lefties & righties can use the same movement. It took me several hours before I was able to throw anything that remotely resembled my intended shape. Bear in mind that I hadn’t thrown a pot in some 18-20 years. After finishing that first piece that came out as I had intended, I pulled the wire against the bat like I would to remove it only instead of pulling across completely, I stopped halfway through the base & pulled the wire up thru the middle. I could feel his reaction before he said a word. 😂. He immediately asked me why I had done such a thing because the piece was great. I replied, ‘so I can learn from the mistakes.’ I immediately pointed to the lower sides just off the bat. This area needs to be pulled up better next time; the bottom needed to be compressed more evenly; that section over there is too thin & will buckle under, etc. After I showed him everything, he understood why I did it, though he was still a bit upset about it. lol Later that afternoon, he became more upset because I wired thru every piece he made on the wheel. I continued to do so for days, weeks, & months. It wasn’t just his pieces either. I wired thru the middle of my own pieces too. It has been a few months or so now. I don’t wire thru as much as I did before. He simply doesn’t really know when I’ll do it. His other source of disbelief is when there is less clay to throw. I add dry (non-fired) thrown pots to a bag then using a hammer, I break them into smaller, more manageable pieces that are added to a bucket & barely covered with slip from my water bucket in order to reconstitute it back into workable clay that I’ll reclaim & wedge so it is able to be thrown again. These are but a few things I’ve learned from the two intermediate pottery classes 18-20yrs ago, teaching methods I learned from my great-grandfather (he introduced me to a pottery kick wheel) & others like my late mom, great aunts/uncles, & the many potters online such as RUclips. Now, with Tea’s shared pearls of wisdom, I have even more techniques & learning tools to allow me to become a better potter. I desperately want a kiln. Sadly, they are too far out of my financial grasp. It’s merely the hardship of life on a fixed income. Even the smaller test kilns are super expensive! We live in the city limits so I can’t do a pit fire. I couldn’t run a pit fire at someone else’s home outside the city limits because I’m legally blind. I have some light perception. It simply isn’t enough to fire clay in a pit firing or raku setting. I’d be apt to hurt myself or someone else. I don’t think my neighbors would like my using a raku kiln either. The city has an ordinance regarding open fires. They don’t have an argument with electric kilns. That argument is solely controlled by the low level of my pocketbook. 😕😢
I am working with my husband trying to throw on the wheel, albeit, I’m relearning how to throw as it’s been years since I was proficient. It turned out that our daughters needed me more than I needed to throw pots. Dh was able to clear a bit of space for me to setup a small studio. It is difficult for me to teach him because he is right hand dominant & I’m left hand dominant. Also, he is at that stage where he thinks wedging clay takes too much time & strength, leaving too little time to throw. I don’t have a kiln or other way to fire pots, so he has yet to experience having a pot he’s babied thru the wedging & throwing, not to mention trimming without punching thru the pot, only to have it blow up in the kiln from air pockets. 😂😆😂
Love Tea. Living in Eugene in early nineties when he had studio there.
I attended the show today and it was wonderful! This video is really wonderful too. Best wishes for the next forty years. Cheers!
Glad you made it to the show! And thanks so much for watching!!
Best in Show from 2006-22 photos? Nice video and very informative.
I’ll make another video showing all of those for a future video, once I gather the images - thanks for asking! As mentioned, the ones shared are part of the Permanent Collection, which stopped after 2005. And thank you, glad you liked it. 🙂
So glad that Ellen is a contributor to this effort since she did SOOOOO much for many years!!!
I didn’t know Ellen in her early years but could tell she was a dynamo and really cared about the clay community. We were very fortunate to have her!
This is Terrific. Thank you all. See you there. Jan Edwards
Thanks Jan - see you soon!
Thanks for sharing. I'm just starting in pottery as a supplement to my retirement. I'm so glad to have become an artist in clay.
Thanks for watching, and welcome to the clay community!! There are so many possibilities with clay - have fun!
If you’re slip trailing at the leather hard stage like demonstrated on the video, then how did the for instance, the bowl have white fern, slip trail and the rest of the ball was a dark blue?
Hi Debi: I could take a guess, but it might be best to write directly to Nicole - she gives her contact info towards the end around 18:30
She answered this question on her site! "The decoration on these pieces is done at the greenware stage, when the clay is still leather hard, meaning it is still malleable but will hold its form. Once the pieces are thrown on the wheel, they are trimmed and finished, and then coated with a range of different colored slips - ranging from a red iron to a dark blue, to a soft green. Once this layer of slip dries, I use my slip trailing tool to trail on patterns of ferns, spirals, and other nature-inspired designs. This slowly dries and then the pots are loaded into the kiln for bisquing. Each piece is glazed in a glossy clear, and then fired for roughly 20 hours to cone 10 reduction, reaching roughly 2480*F. After a two day cooling period, the kiln is unloaded and each pot is sanded before being packed for its new home. All of this collection is dishwasher and microwave safe."
Thanks, this is so good.
I have been amused by James DeRosso for many years. 😆 He is a very creative & playful person, that's why he makes such fun monsters. All ages love his monsters. Make one, buy one, monsters give smiles forever! 👀❤🔥
I've been a fan of Patrick Horsley for over 40 years. 😊 He is a fantastic & creative Artist, kindly shares his knowledge & a real nice guy. 😉 I have always loved his innovative work. Very collectible.🥰
In your video on slip trailing, I didn’t hear you say “what” your slip was made from and if you were to add colorants what those would be? Thanks! Oh! Yes thanks for sharing …great easy explanation and your background in pottery experience!👍
Great video….😊
Thanks for watching!
Can you explain how you glaze the piece so the slip trail shows when the piece has been glazed in a dark color?
I know this is an old comment but I went to her website and she explained how she achieves that look "The decoration on these pieces is done at the greenware stage, when the clay is still leather hard, meaning it is still malleable but will hold its form.
