Beautiful pots Dan! It would be amazing if you could show us some process of glazing, even if it is just a basic technique and glaze. I do realise you have experimented and worked hard for many years to get to where you are now, so I don't expect you to share everything! Much love and appreciation, cheers!

I didn't realize how relatively new to KZfaq you are.. you have a brilliantly simple approach but well designed when it comes to pottery. It would be interesting to see some of your pots with tree's in them if you haven't already made a few video's like that.. anyway keep the videos coming my man..

Love you work and your trees. I am a bonsai artist also and have just started to make my owe pots. Thank you for the insight and ideas. i don't suppose you would share your Gunmetal Red glaze recipe and firing temperature? Either way keep up the videos. They are traffic!
@danbarton1019 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Mike - I've been making pots for bonsai for nearly 50 years and only very recently have I decided to share some of my ideas and techniques regarding the processes involved, and I hope to add to this - but, it may well be some time yet before I decide to share the recipe/technique for achieving the very special gun-metal red colour. But it may happen some day. Thanks for your enquiry. I fire all my stoneware pots to 1220C and soak for 25 minutes to let the glaze settle.

@@danbarton1019 Hello Dan; I fully understand. I can tell you have a lifetime of experience. Thank you for sharing what you have so far. I am still looking for a good glaze for my pots. I am also interested in the technique you call "Mud Painting". Perhaps a subject for an upcoming video? I have already made two dot tools and made two pots with dots. They are looking quite good so far. Thank you again. Looking forward to your next video.

The gun metal oxide glaze! Wow! What does this consist of Dan? Looking to create this sort of look on my beige crank pots. Any advice would be gratefully appreciated. Loads of love

You've chosen the one glaze effect that is sought after by so many of my pottery friends, but for the time being I'm still not prepared to share the way I produce it as it is my best seller. Sorry!

Sorry Darlene - they've all been accounted for, but I do accept commissions for pots up to 12 " - anything larger becomes difficult to pack and ship safely and the shipping costs to the USA are huge
