Are you using the same clear you did before? You might try a few different clear glazes to see if one of the chemicals is the culprit. <br /><br />Another thing that just occurred to me: if you fire first to cone 04, then to cone 03, aren't you melting the redart on the second firing? Redart by itself can be a glaze at higher temperatures, it has a low melting point. ( Somebody correct me if I'm confused here!) I was testing redart slip once and when I layered it under a clear glaze, it was absorbed into the glaze and just turned clear. So maybe the second time, fire lower, like to cone 06, instead of higher. <br /><br />I hope you figure it out, it's lovely!Vicki Wenderlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12185302590364537063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-87821113409540659862011-02-04T15:58:45.834-08:002011-02-04T15:58:45.834-08:00yeh great colours!!!! love em...what about using a...yeh great colours!!!! love em...what about using an amber glaze on the raw clay and roughing it up with your layering??ang designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10818952156682990100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-1018180003516407462011-02-04T10:08:35.491-08:002011-02-04T10:08:35.491-08:00You're taking the inspiration to amazing place...You're taking the inspiration to amazing places.

I like that crocus martis color, I might have to try that.Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-60348106865247790702011-02-04T07:02:01.313-08:002011-02-04T07:02:01.313-08:00Like the new colors & don't you just hate ...Like the new colors & don't you just hate it when you can't repeat a glaze you love.

I thought it was a fired decal, I've always admired those barn signs on the side of barns, I used to do decoupage years ago but on wood boxes, like this new direction you're going with your "barns".Linda Starrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04364078667554676592noreply@blogger.com
