    I find that the Pete's is dry, but beautiful, especially if you use the SH firing schedule with a slow cool.  What color is your clay body?  It looks like you used the Pete's in the very center.  What is the blue color in the rim area?  Try layering the Petes with the Watercolor green and the strontium for light colors for some very wowie effects!

    Also, these glazes are well behaved except for the ash, they don't run.  Put the Petes on thickly, otherwise it's a pretty ugly brown.

    Pleased to meet you!  Your work is beautiful.  I am an intermediate level potter and only have available to me cone 6 electric kiln and am craving the look of cone 10.  I love your glazes and just now I think I noticed that you usually use porcelain.  I do not but I joined this site to hopefully get tips on getting the look I want.  Still trying to find my way around the site!

    I am new to the site, remind me what SCM is and where I might find info (formula) for it and the other glazes you use, if you are willing to share. They are beautiful. Thanks. The beer steins are incredible.
