Let me inspire! How I use Amaco Oatmeal in my Glaze Layering process. Including Fired results.
So I put together my pieces that were ready to paint and I realized I had many pots that I was going to add Oatmeal to …..
So a video opportunity to show you guys another thought process in my glaze layering. All glazes in this video are Amaco.

I have also gone live with my website

I will be adding lots of pots over the next few weeks. If there is anything you see and like then send me a message to

On the positive side I have learned so much from your videos an appreciate you art and your work. Being an American the speed at which you talk sometimes baffles me as I have a hearing disability and often can’t understand you due to your strong British accent. But that I am afraid is my problem and the longer I view your videos the more I am growing accustomed to your speech pattern. In the beginning you might have been speaking in Chinese as I had no understanding of your language. At the end of your video you finally identified rainforest as the underlining glaze of the pieces with the scalloped Smoky Merlo trim. Thank you so much!

Glazing is not my favourite part of the process, so watching vlogs like this give me hope. Thankyou

Food safe??? I remember as a 4 year old going to the Moretti box making yard on Bluevale St. in Glasgow and drinking tea out of tin cans. That would be 1954 and I doubt the cans got any more than a rinse in between. I love Iron Lustre and have started combining more often with Oatmeal. Hope the weekend goes well, folk who don't fall in love with your pots must still be coming out of the Covid Dumps. Great share and results.... Cheers...Freddie

Thank you! I've been scared of oatmeal after seeing some nightmare stories. My clay body did not like above Cone 5. Before I buy some of these glazes, do any need a higher firing than Cone 5 to get these beautiful results? Truly stunning!
@LoisHook
@LoisHook 2 жыл бұрын
So all these are fired on a cone 6 either medium or in the case if these ones a slow fire because of the big lamps. This is a preset Kiln and I find my witness cones are at cone 7. Not sure what results you will het at cone 5 though most glazes are happy at that but if you investigate on the Amaco site you will find some major differences with Temps. A thought. May be look at a stoneware smooth white clay no grog like mine and then cone 6 is fine.

My clay is a stoneware bmix, no grog... but I hear it can get less reliable at Cone 6. My kiln fires to a hot Cone 5, so I'm hoping to get similar results. Those colors have me salivating to try!!!! Thank you for the response! ❤❤🤗

I really like that you show the raw glaze followed by the fired result BUT you are confusing me by not being specific enough about all the glazes on the raw piece (and sometimes the wrong name).

Why oatmeal flux instead of honey flux? What does it add or how is it different?
@LoisHook
@LoisHook 2 ай бұрын
I have both. Only just started to play with honey flux. Oatmeal thicker. Causes outstanding reactions. I think honey flux mixes with the glazes more and runs more. Merges more. Oatmeal seams to not run so much and cause colour changes it a short run. The only way to see what you feel is to buy and play with both. Do some text tiles.

In this instance when over curtain glazes it mixes Runs and causes a flux. I did it on its own and it’s an oatmeal colour. No run. Then put snow over and it had a white motels effect.

My background was engineering, but have some chemistry in the pharmaceutical company I have been at for the last 15 years. that was how I learned to break down alot of the glazes. And with the help of John Britt. He writes a good book. But I can under stand not having the time I get that way all the time. Nice talking to you Lois. eddie.
