This course instructs the student in the theory and practice of glaze chemistry and glaze formulation. This curriculum starts at the beginning and goes through the materials, heat, cones, temperature, chemistry, colorants, glaze flaws, and more! Students will learn how to formulate original glazes from glaze materials. Instruction will cover stoneware and porcelain glazes. Special glaze effects such as lusters, ceramic decals, underglazes and overglazes will also be discussed.
