Here's my first test batch of celadons over sgraffito slips! Overall I'm happy with the result, but also glad I took notes so I can keep tweaking the process.
Here are some closeups - I'm much happier with the one-coat darker glazes (the lighter ones in these duos - left-hand glaze is Coyote Root Beer, right is Coyote Rainy Day):
And Coyote Aqua wins for best contrast (top left is over cobalt slip/brown speckle clay, top right over black slip/white clay):
& some sunbeam photos showing the subtle beauty of the less contrast-y ones:
Now that I have these guys, I'm off to slap some celadons on the bigger sgraffito ungulates/sphinxes from my last bisqued batch so they're ready for their kiln field trip on Monday. Wish me luck & benevolent kiln gods please!!
