potter. I bought it when I first started my home studio and knew very
little about what the heck I was doing. I know a little more now thanks to
my dog eared "Mastering Cone 6 Glazes" and many years of the same college
ceramics course over and over. (I'm one of those life long learners that
make instructors sigh and say welcome back). My glazes from your book are
the most stable and foolproof no matter what new thing I try. My beautiful
(GREEN) variegated slate blue makes people and my farmers market booth
gasp! Thank you so much!
