Classes Course 1 – Introduction to Practical Glaze Chemistry: 6-weeks

Course 1 – Introduction to Practical Glaze Chemistry: 6-weeks

$365.00
Sold Out
Wednesdays 6:30pm–9:00pm

incl. a 52-page handout booklet, glaze materials, and firing

This 6 week course is indented for both potters who are wanting to start getting into mixing their own glazes, as well as those who already have some basic knowledge and experience.

We will explore ways of understanding glazes and how to put theory into practice, finalising with testing glazes and a review of the results.

After this course you will:

  • be able to analyse glazes using glazy.org

  • know what the various materials do in a glaze

  • think of 5,000,000 materials as just a source of 12 compounds

  • understand how to adjust for local materials with confidence

  • have explored colour and texture in a glaze

  • walk away with a bunch of new tested recipes and heaps of new knowledge!

The cost of the course includes materials and test firing. You do need to bring your own personal protective equipment and prepare test tiles (though arrangements can be made where necessary).
