Introduction to Glaze Formulation

This class will introduce students to the materials used to create glazes.  Through a series of labs we will become familiar with the constituent materials and then combine them to design our own glaze.  Through this process students will be introduced to methods they can use to alter glazes to correct flaws, change color or adjust texture.  All labs will be fired to Cone 6 in an oxidation atmosphere.  Skills learned in this course can be applied to any firing temperature or atmosphere.

This class is for Intermediate students with prior experience working with clay and glaze in typical classroom setting.
