This just in from John Britt. I loved the book The Complete Guide to High-Fire Glazes, Glazing & Firing at Cone 10, Based on this and the work on his website. I would highly recommend his workshops. Read on for information that John has to share on his upcoming workshop.
Have you ever wished that you had a better understanding of glazes and how to make them do what you want?
Well, that is exactly what you will get if you take this Basic Ceramic Raw Materials and Glaze Chemistry workshop. Rather than having tons of miscellaneous scraps of information floating around in your brain that only confuse you, you will have a chance to knit them together into a unified whole.
There are still couple of spots open and the more people we have the more information we can get from the tests. This is the opportunity you have been waiting for!
Basic Ceramic Raw Materials and Glaze Chemistry
July 21 – 25, 2008 , $450.
Just 2 miles from Penland, North Carolina.
This course in basic ceramic chemistry is designed for potters who want to become acquainted with the materials used in ceramics, their origins and uses in low-fire, mid-range and high-fire glazes. We will cover oxides and their sources, the Seger Unity Molecular formula, and will mix and test glaze recipes on test tiles only. Some experience with ceramics is preferred.
