Brown: Glazing for the Wood Kiln
Instructor: Josh DeWeese
July 9-13, 2008
It is said that potters often work with the many variations
in the color brown. Red brown, blue brown, yellow brown, and
so on...However, the potential for vibrant wood fired glaze
colors is real and in this workshop we will begin to scratch
at its surface.
DeWeese has 12 years of firing knowledge with the Bray's wood
salt/soda, and will share the glaze palette he has developed.
Students will bring bisque ware to glaze and fire in the wood
fired salt soda kiln and participate in a 5 day exploration
of color. Demonstrations, tours, and studio visits will fill
our time while the kiln is cooling.
No previous firing experience is necessary, but students should
have some experience working in clay.
