dozens of glaze test tiles


Katie Sullivan of Cornell made dozens of glaze test tiles: 15 glazes and how they combine with each other, which I guess is approx. 15 X 15 tests. I had the plywood and a distinct interest in the results, and lent a hand in organizing and mounting them. Kind of amazing, if you like to think and talk about glazes.

Gee - I could make a wonderful little mosaic out of those tiles!

I'd never thought of it, Gary, but it would make sense to do something like that wouldn't it? Or are you a glaze-surprise kind of potter?

Katie is a mathematician, I am a disorganized slob: therefore I have never done a systematic test of anything
