Glazes 03/13/2011
 
Over the past couple of weeks I've been getting into mixing of glazes. It's much like cooking; the right combination of ingredients can generate an amazing presentation, and you could also mess it up pretty royally with just the slightest miscalculation. And like cooking, you sometimes need to scrape the burned burned up bits off the bottom of the pans. Though with glazes it tends to be more fun, cause you get to use a metal grinder, hammer, and chisel. 
The pics below are the glaze colors I've settled on. Seemed reasonable to get four or five colors in pretty solidly, and then branch out from there. The other part is that the glazes do some crazy things when mixed together- the white speckle and the powdery blue are fine on their own, but also make a drippy black-blue when combined, which was a total bonus.
