Susan,

I tried your link about three times and kept getting a "bad link" message. Finally looked at the address and for some reason the last part, which isn't underlined in my mail, doesn't go with the link. So while in the bad link message, I went to the address bar and added @N00/ and then got your photo. The pot is beautiful. So much love and time can be seen in it. I love the little candid shot of you in the upper right corner, at least I think that's you.

Wow, that is a fantastic work. I love it. Wonderful idea, and great
excecution.

Regarding glazing, first of all, I would highly reccomend spraying your
glaze on for this. Dipping frequently causes pooling, and filling in, of
the inside sharp curves, and painting can also be difficult as it
frequently leaves distracting paint lines or uneven application. Of course
you could use the brush strokes to accentuate the curves of the leaves and
such. If you want to try underglazes, they are probably fine to brush.

Anyway, for particular glazes, we have the the Laguna Moraccan Sand glazes
at our studio, and I have tried out several of them on my own carved works.
Any of the transparent glazes will work nicely. I have used Royal Blue
(#20), Turkish Amber (#37), and the Forest Green (#04). The Blue is a bit
brighter then I generally like, and has little blue specks in it which can
detract from really fine, shallow carving, but should be ok in this case.
The Amber is a nice brown, and the green I tend to prefer with a coat of
clear underneth to lighten it a bit. I have not used Peacock (#27) or
Hyacinth (#56), but they look like they would work nicely as well.

Of the opaque glazes I have mostly just used Antigue Blue (#55), which is
really a green unless it is over a white glaze or a clear. It has darker
green lines where it is thicker, and white where thinner. Sometimes it has
little gold speckles where it is really thick. This is my favorite glaze
of the bunch, can you tell?

I reccomend avoiding the specialty glazes like Jade (#114?) as they tend to
run, and plow over details.

Generally as long as your glaze application is not too thick /is uniform,
the glaze isn't too runny, and the glaze is either transparent, or has some
kind of color variation with texture, it should work out well.

Hope that helps!
