Big tile day at Surry Art Center in Vancouver BC

This was a group of test trying to get yellow spots with a black cover glaze. This is all cone 5 electric by the way.

Still a few more test of this spotted glaze trying to get some different color covers. All the glaze recipes and everything are listed in the group on Facebook entitled " Exploring cone 6 glazes together with John Britt's book"

Just loaded some more stain test for the spotted glaze series. Let you know tomorrow.

Had a great 1st day of glaze testing with our 28 participants ...firing today...out tomorrow.

Getting set up for a glaze Workshop tomorrow at Adamah Studio, here at Bethel Horizons in Dodgeville Wisconsin. Got a couple spots left open if anyone else is interested in doing some cone 6 electric glaze testing and discussions. Great little spot here in southern Wisconsin

Made a bunch of Spotted Black cups for the next workshop in Dodgeville WI. May 18-20, 2018.

Match a tea in spotted bowl.

Headed to Adamath Clay Studio in Dodgeville WI, May 18-20, 2018. I got these new little cups and I thought we could do some tiny glaze testing!

I guess it's hard to make things by hand ....who knew?

Finally made the Fried Egg...from Curate Restaraunt. Very hot oil ..don't burn down the house...

Tiles from out spotted test series...Licorice with cover.

Had a fun workshop at my studio last weekend and Steve Blankenbeker, who works at a brick Factory, told us that this yellow stain that you get when you wet bisque or a brick is actually Vanadium salts.

Getting for our big Ceramic Materials and Process Workshop tomorrow! Should be a lot of fun and very informative. Alex Glover, Steve Blankenbecker and Mike Tkach. For more info or if you want to come, https://ift.tt/2EK323P

As you can probably assume, I'm not much of a skin care guy, but I got this cream from a potter in my class last weekend and it's actually awesome. I'm not making any money off of this either just so you know... it's just really good stuff. Caramaeskincare.com

Got a few spots left in a workshop outside of Los Angles next week. It's going to be very unique one where we're going to just explore sculptural surfaces for a week! We have 15 people so far but are hoping to get 20 participants so we can have more results to work with. Should be a lot of fun! If you don't mind, please share with your sculpture friends! Thx! #johnbrittworkshop #glazes #pottery #ceramics #sculpture #art #ceramicwor #ceramicsculpture #glazeworkshops #sculpturalsurfaces #bluewaterclay #cats
