March Specialty Product of the Month: Mr. Mark’s Wax-On

Recently we were sent a sample of the Mr. Mark’s Wax On.  We enjoyed testing this wax resist and found it to be excellent for precision application on bisqued ware.  The light purple color, which completely burns out, makes it easy to see as you are applying it....

AMACO Underglaze Chalk Sets – December Specialty Glaze of the Month

by claygirl | Dec 3, 2013 | Featured, Glaze of the Month, Glazes, Products, Speciality, Specials, Sales

The AMACO chalk underglazes are just plain fun to use.  They remind me of elementary school art classes, which were, of course, always the best part of the day, whether we were cutting up construction paper and gluing it down, making masks, or learning about blending...

Instagram post 2198125095220916085_1038691481 If you have the time, be sure to stop by the gallery in Chalmers Hall at KU to check out the show by their talented ceramic artists/students!

Reposted from @kuschoolofthearts “In case you missed it, here are some breathtaking pieces from "Between the Coasts." This show is a collection of works from current MFA students within the Midwest region of the United States that work predominantly with the figure. These artists are exploring emotional, psychological, and mythological relationships and mental states associated with the human condition. Congratulations to all who were involved! #KUarts @kuvisualart”

Hopefully we’ll be able to see where he goes via instagram!

Instagram post 2191543052395566630_1038691481 A piece from our pre-thanksgiving Raku firing.  Plate made by @amceramics glazed by @cindy_bracker and fired by @kilndoc  Does that make this a collaboration piece?  Red clay with crusty lusty in center (it’s magic on a red body!) @lagunaclay Shinju on outside (kinda looks like a shino!?) and the a little dynasty blue on the outer edge.
