Cao,
Interesuje me oprema i proces izrade mozaika.
Ono sto sam gledao i sto mi se svidja jeste keramicki mozaik. U vezi sa tim imam par pitanja:
\- gde se nabavljaju plocice, secice, ona velika sprava za rezanje? Ima masa tih stvari na netu, zato pitam za preporuku?
\- na sta se lepi i koji se lepak koristi?
\- ako zelimo da uramimo, da li onda ide neka drvena podloga i koja?
\- da li je potrebna neka specijalna fuga?

Kao pocetniku, svaka informacija bi znacila.

Anyone able to give a date estimate on this dishware, or whether or not it is likely to be safe to use? (Concerned about lead/cadmium paint or other harmful components)

Thanks!

I know they’re Japanese but I’d love to know what era, the maker and or purpose of these little cups. At first I thought tea but they’re pretty small, possible for sake?

One my favorite projects, a wedge of the LA ‘river’, I also took photos of the tagging in the area and created overglaze decals as a part of the glazing. Mostly underglazes otherwise and spot clear.

Hi all, I’m new to ceramics and was wondering how to achieve something similar to what is pictured. I’ve made a few things out of black clay (Ironstone), and think they’d look great with this sort of effect.

What glaze and how should I apply it to get this effect? Thanks!

I inherited this tiered dish from my grandmother. It has been out for every holiday for 50 years. I broke the base that the tiers stand on and am devastated. I have contacted the local ceramics places asking if anyone would be willing to make a new base for it. No one was interested. It doesn’t need to be the same shape or size or color, just something that would look good. It only needs a hole on top large enough for the bolt to go through.
Is there any other place I could look to get a custom piece done? Someone on Etsy? I can’t bear to throw this away.

✨ Happy to share that my work Comme, Pluie Noire was selected as the image for the official poster of Intersecting Gazes, the KNYAA Artist Group Annual Exhibition at the Salmagundi Club in New York.

🏺 Comme, Pluie Noire, 2024

🍾 Reception: September 30, 6–8 PM
📍 Salmagundi Club, 47 Fifth Avenue, New York

Very grateful to be part of the exhibition and to see my work featured on this year’s poster. 💙

I used the shell pink design colours underglaze by walker ceramics, and this was the result I got when fired to stoneware.

I applied a stoneware gloss on top.

Why did this happen? Would this happen if I applied an earthenware glaze?

Any advice?

As much as I hate 3D printed dragons, I do kinda like the idea of them, just not how they’re all basically the same uniform thing. So this is my first (and messy) attempt of a moving dragon sculpture, it all went mostly smoothly, but for my next one I’m testing out metal for the joints instead of making the rings by hand. I also plan to try to make smaller ones as well.

My plan for glazing is to use underglazes, and to maybe clear glaze over them in certain places that I can.

My partner and I visited a local coffee shop/ceramics workshop today. They had a bunch of pre-made designs and shapes but I wanted something a little more unique. Wasn’t sure what to do at first, but I saw some blue and white porcelain motifs on the demo pieces and wanted to give it a go. They helped me water down the blue glaze and I used a slightly darker shade for the details. Just wanted to share because I was pleasantly surprised by the result. Any advice on technique or design is appreciated! I used a small regular paintbrush for most of the color and a squeeze bottle with a needle applicator for the details. Will update when it’s been fired!
