Do you live in Terrace then? I'm in Smithers! We're pretty much next door neighbours! The 'food for thought' piece is actually a low fire earthenware piece. The clay discs had a slip applied, then a clear glaze, and then I used laser transfer decals afterwards. These were not fired with the decals on; however they can be fired, and I intend to put some pieces into a firing at some point. The decals were printed on a basic HP Laser printer and the word is that HP laser toner has a the highest amount of Black Iron Oxide of all laser toners. After firing, they would come out a sepia brown colour. I have some other piece I would like to try the technique on. I am only recently getting back into cone 6 work and right now I am fooling around with single firing and working on some good glazes for cone 6. I will be posting some pictures onto the site tonight of some pieces that came out of the kiln today. We should stay in touch. Susan
