Yeah, thanks you just answered my question. I’m a newbie to ceramics at the grand age of 61 and loving it. Great video, by the way, I love being a fool and watching them. 🤗❤️🤣
Hi Simon, Fool?... NEVER!! You always have something worthwhile to say and to show us. Thanks for the simple but great paint brush holder. As always, you rock!!!! Warm regards from Debbie in Florida
hi simon, thanks for the vid. i too have been experimenting with ash glazes, trying to determine proper application to them to run just the right amount. would you mind recording your application of the glaze to this piece so i can compare? thanks!
Love the sprigs. But, for some reason my eye wants them to be flipped horizontally. I worked out a good cone 10 Ash glaze. I will get it when next in the studio, and post here later. Cheers, Andrew.
Sorry so wordy. "Hake" (Robert Fournier) Soft flat hand-made Japanese brush 1 1/2"-31/2" wide From hakame? Hakame, A thick white slip or Engobe used over a darker body of clay to provide a backgrond for other brush-work such as iron stains. Hamada's bottles I like to use a very thin coat of clear glaze, the white brush strokes in contrast to a darker clay are beautiful and I feel it should not have to compete with and equaly beautiful ash glaze.
Hakame, Korean Yi period deco using a thick white slip and a course hakame brush, is decribed as a miniature garden broom. Robert Fournier, quotes in his Dictionary. "Leach recommends Pikes siliceous ball clay GFS.,perhapes with the addition of china clay and feldspar,though not to go to far with the additions to the natural clay will destroy the quality of the result which, to quote Honey'implies a principle fundimental in all the arts it speakes clearly of the process'.
