Whether you'd like to learn the basics of glazing, or take your surface decoration to the next level, Larissa will take you through all the techniques to get the results you want. This course will cover the following topics:

  • Dipping basics
  • Spraying on glazes for a flawless finish
  • Layering glazes safely
  • Cone 10 results vs Cone 6 results
  • Applying underglazes
  • Using oxides to pick out texture
  • Crawl glaze - spraying underglazes, then applying a crawl glaze for a unique look
  • Using the WSP limited time glazes (Abbots etc)
  • Buying commercial glazes - suitable temperatures, mixing powdered glazes, brushing on glazes
  • Making & using cookies
  • Trouble-shooting – unwanted crawling, dunting, shivering etc

Bring your bisqued pieces, any glazes you have and all your glaze ideas and questions. You may also want to bring an apron or an old towel with you, as potting is a lot of fun and a little messy!
