Hi Everyone;
Usually I just lurk on the list, but here's a question. Sometimes I make
images using slip over a resisting surface, like waxed paper. This works
fine for really simple stuff but gets crinkly and funky with more
articulated images. So I am looking for something to use that I can
essentially "cut and paste" on greenware and then apply slip and then peel
it off without having to majorly clean the edges of the images. Any ideas?

Kate, Have you tried decal paper?

I have used newsprint and wet it to stick. Then I have sprayed slip
over the pattern. When it dries it comes off, sometimes too soon if I
don't get it sprayed fast enough.

Hi Kate and all,
Our TA at UC Berkeley (a hundred light years ago), Pat Siler, was
doing amazing pieces cutting his shapes out of heavy blotter paper
and applying them wet to the pot, then using a heavy slip that kept
the sharp thick edge when fired. Very strong. I never found a
reason to try it but I sure saw that it worked.
What I have done is used latex to draw any kind of complex image then
just pick at a corner after applying the slip and it all comes off as
a piece leaving very sharp edges.

.
Kate, you might try putting your images on vellum. This seems to hold up
to being wet without tearing too badly.
