Where chemistry meets art. Andrew Linderman makes this exciting exploration into glazes very accessible and fun!
Learn to make your own glazes or adapt the recipes you already use.
Students will learn about the basic parts of a glaze: glass-former, flux, stabilizer and colorants (and opacifiers). From this students will learn methods to correct for glaze flaws, change colors, and how to develop their own glaze palette. This will include line blends and triaxial blends.
