Melinda,
THANK YOU!!! I had no idea it was an article! I remembered reading about
it in the CLAYART archives...possibly put there by you!

Are you burnishing too?
I'm also intrigued with that possibility. In the new Ceramics Mo, the cover
piece is a burnished process using three oils... anyone know how this is
done?
