The folks in the LSP Research Facility are back at it this week experimenting with various agateware ideas. All pieces were BISQUED to Cone 04 and FIRED to Cone 5. Good times!

Darwin's Choice definitely my favorite. I think the final product has a lot to do with how much time the piece spins on the wheel while you throw it. The longer it takes, the closer the colors get and you have a more "striped" piece. Thanks for posting a great and informative video.

Im sure you are right. There are a lot of factors that influence the final result, right. Thanks for watching!!!

I LOVE how you show such detailed, instructional videos and also when you show the finished product! So many videos online are good but they don't show the end product and it's terribly disappointing! Thank you tons!

You can also twist coils of light and dark clay for yet another neat marbled effect!

I like that. thanks. Im think I could make a whole other video with more ways to stack, right.

Really cool experiments. I'm partial to the last one. Loving your videos. Stumbled upon your channel today. So entertaining and educational at the same time. 3 year novice potter here, and I love finding new channels and artists to follow since I'm mostly a self-directed potter. Really appreciate artists who share their knowledge with everyone.

That Darwin’s choice was the nicest one.

#2 Slice & Stack: looks like a cow's pettern without being too obvious and literal. #6 Once again Darwin was right! Looks more marbled that the others to me. This was súper fun, I'd love to see one for creating marble effect in hand building.

Love the slab and stripe and the carousel they are just so organic and the Darwin’s choice is gorgeous

@catherineschutz1797 3 жыл бұрын

The colored clay carousel can be done as a laminate swirl -- cut a channel to push the colored clay "worms" into, which makes them an integrated part of the clay mound when you are throwing. The swirl becomes imbedded into the agateware and less susceptible to being trimmed away.

Excellent idea Catherine. Thanks for that!

When stacking, it also makes a difference on how the layers are oriented when you put the ball of clay on the wheelhead....horizontal (like you did) vertical, or my favorite - 45 deg.

Great tip Eric. Thanks so much!

@nikkijain7175 3 жыл бұрын

Awesome! Darwin's choice is my favourite 😂 followed by carousel 🎠 wondering why you didn't cone up and down 🤔 is it because the colors would get disintegrated by doing so?

@annruel1982 3 жыл бұрын

hi Nikki. If the clay is soft enough to center, I usually dont cone up and down. I just push down and in on it to center. It may have made a difference in the outcome....that could be a whole other video, haha.

@kathleengray7681 3 жыл бұрын

This can also be done by simply pounding the clay together properly!

Thanks Kathleen. There are many more ways ....enough for a part 2, right.

Ann--- I use mason stains (MS) for flowers and leaves. I fight with all the greens. Often my beautiful mint green becomes ugly brown once clear glaze is applied. I've tried Amaco clear, zinc free and finally matte clear to maintain the green color. No luck. I mix my MS with b-mix to the desired color value and fire at cone 5. I've checked all of kilns and they're fine. Any guesses or suggestions?
