<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;">I would like to start this post by saying that I am
very thankful to the Northern Clay Center and the Jerome Foundation for giving
me the opportunity to pursue this project. This past spring I was chosen to
recieve a 2012 Jerome Ceramic Artists Project Grant awarded by the Northern
Clay Center. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;">My project for this grant was to make a body of work using slips and
glazes fired to cone 3 with terra cotta. I did not have much experience with
low fire clays or glazes as I had worked primarily with porcelain bodies firing
in reduction to cone 10.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Times;">I wanted to pursue firing to cone 3 as I could easily use an electric
kiln and save a great amount of energy compared to firing at cone 10 with gas.
I knew I wasn’t going to have easy access to a gas kiln and needed to be more independent if I wanted to continue making pots. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I also wanted to be more environmentally conscious of the
materials and energy I use. By using an earthenware body the clay becomes very
vitreous firing to cone 3 and hotter, which I believe is stronger than
stoneware or porcelain at cone 10. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When I flick one of these cone 3 pots with my fingernail it
has a sweet sounding glassy ring to it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 21px;">I started by doing some melt tests of frits, Gillespie B,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>and neph sye while firing the clay to
temperatures ranging from cone 1 to cone 5.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I tested different slip and glaze recipes from fellow
potters as well as mixing blends during these first firings. I found a lot of issues
with these firings, a minimal amount crawling and/or crazing, but many over
fired or under fired glazes.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The
amount and type of frit in these glazes made a substantial difference in the
outcome.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I decided to use frit
3195 for glaze development as it has the highest melting point compared to 3110, 3124, and 3134 frits.</span></div>

at cone 3.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The clay body I decided
to use is low fire red from Continental Clay as I know many potters who have
used it for years. It is a high iron earthenware body that can be fired to cone
4 easily. At cone 5 I noticed a substantial amount of bloating with this
clay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I bisque fire to cone 07 as
that seems to be sufficient to keep from excess off gassing during the glaze
firing.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
