Does anyone know why, after putting a green slip on a stoneware sculpture,
and then applying dry oxides with a brush over it and then firing to ^6 in
oxidation, why would the oxides not show up? The only color was of the
slip itself. I expected a mottled appearance, but got a flat color. Any
ideas would be helpful. Thanks a lot!
