Course Description

Summary

This course will focus on the exploration of fired ceramic surfaces and the fundamentals of formulating glazes for use in ceramic art. An emphasis will be placed on understanding the chemistry behind glazes and how the molecular breakdown of glaze recipes translates into unique fired surfaces. Through hands on and theoretical approaches students will gain experience developing high fire glaze recipes and acquire the methodology needed for continued testing and surface development. This course is offered in the second seven weeks of the term.
