Holy smokes!!! THAT WAS AMAZING!!! ♥️🔥♥️🔥♥️ Thank you❣️❣️❣️

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

Glad you liked it!!

[@user-bm4ge4vr6t]

Thanks! Same stuff I use. I never get such ‘resist’. I’ll try thicker. ✅

[@CelesteCavanaugh-jb5do]

WOW! You make glazing look easy with your relaxed style and no worry, upbeat attitude❣️ Glazing has always been my least fav pottery task but you make it look as magic! Thanks! Celeste

[@loritheriault3633]

Thanks, Celeste! It took a lot of trial and error, but I love working with glazes and techniques that can bring a group of pots together as a family, while still showing the indivdual uniqueness of each (like a family)!

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

I'm so glad!

Hi are you selling these as functional tableware? I am sure they are fired to vitrification but I am under the impression that water and bacteria can still get into unglazed sections over time? I absolutely love the look and hope I'm wrong about the water/bacteria issue? I'm a newbie potter and want to try this!!

[@jeanettesherratt1276]

Hi. I have just watched your dancing brush technique. I found it fascinating. I am a newbie potter. Could you explain what you meant by khaki. Is that a glaze as well as the clear?? I didn’t quite understand. When I saw the result of your tree there is a greenish glaze as well as the clear. Thanks

[@kwlloyd7]

Yes, I feel reinspired! Thanks 😊

[@user-kz1ux7hs4h]

Wonderful! Can we see the final results after firing?

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

Lori is wonderful!

[@anniematheson426]

I was so stunned by the final result, my mouth fell open! Wow! What glazes did you use? May I ask what you said you treated the bisque with before beginning? I have never tried wax resist. I am very excited to try. You are an amazing artist and an inspiration!

[@andreadumas6680]

Can this also be done with a brush on glaze?

[@katherinelarsen5591]

Can this be done with brush on clear instead of dipping? They’re beautiful!

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

Give it a try

[@karenotway3078]

Oh khaki glaze! These are amazing. And you just use Clear glaze over top of the khaki and that changes the tone? Beautiful work

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

Yes!

[@marciasilviajohnson6461]

What cone do you fire? Can you share the glazes recipes? 🤗

[@sarahwellsrolland5097]

Hi Marcia, Lori is my guest on my channel. Kaki and clear are both common traditional glazes fired to cone 10 reduction.

[@karenotway3078]

What is tacky glaze.
