hi! thank you for this video. I am new to sgraffitto techniques. My question is related to the background color of the clay before you added the wax resist. You said the clay is white, but the surface of the clay appears to be dark blue? Or was I just seeing the second coast of wax resist (blue) so you started off white, but didn~t show that part?
It is a low fire talc clay that is gray when wet and off white when fired. I get it from Seattle Pottery Supply and it is their LF-06 clay. seattlepotterysupply.com/collections/low-fire-clay-cone-06-04/products/sp500-lf06-white
Hola, Hello ...I don't know what I am missing. You say you are uding white clay, but all your circles are black at the beginning of each project. Please explain. Thanks. Loved them.
If you have ^5-6 glaze on the outside of a bowl and underglaze on the inside do I need to fire twice? If so What temp for the first UG firing? Will it work to just single fire?
Thank you for the video. What I would find helpful is seeing the pieces after they have been fired, to understand the full results of the different techniques demonstrated. 😊
I did see brief shots of the final result after firing at the end of each section. If you rewatch you will have to pause the recording to have a good look.
Thank you for being SO GENEROUS with your knowledge. As a beginner, these videos are real gems as confidence boosters. So thank you
Thanks for demonstrating the various under-glazing techniques. I'm new to ceramics and I hope to experiment with these techniques soon.
Best explanation of these glazing styles I've seen. Simple for some of newbies!!
You are amazing teacher !
Thanks .
I really wanted to learning more from you …
Thank you! 😃
Cool video, I am going to try these techniques out with my students ....thank you ;)

What is this amazing clay that is black but turns white when fired?
It is a low fire talc clay that is gray when wet and off white when fired. I get it from Seattle Pottery Supply and it is their LF-06 clay. seattlepotterysupply.com/collections/low-fire-clay-cone-06-04/products/sp500-lf06-white
I was so confused at first!

Hi. Yes, that might be confusing. When it is fired it is white. When it is plastic it is a gray color that probably looks darker on the video.
❤❤❤❤❤ thank you

Is it ok to use underglaze on bone dry clay?
Yes, BUT be careful about adding too much moisture to the greenware (unfired clay) as it can cause the clay to dissolve and lose its shape.
So true
Hello! Can I ask why this black clay turns white when fired?
This is a low fire white talc clay and so it is gray when unfired and off white when fired.
A very well made video!
Thank you very much!
Interesting video, thanks!) The picture is only cloudy.
Love your video's but what you did was a mask not a stencil, a stencil would have been the complete opposite.
This is not underglaze it is stroke and coat and that is a glaze
Thanks. I am using stroke and coat LIKE UNDERGLAZE. You are right, stroke and coat is a glaze.
To Łony and boring
this is a terrible video painting black onto black clay so you cant see much.
It doesn’t take much imagination to realise the underglaze filled the holes carved.
