They have wonderful tools too. I think everyone has their own song to sing so I do not mind sharing. They also look good under intense glazes. Sort of peaking out. HaveFun.

Where do you get your decals? There has been some stuff on decals on Ceramics Daily newsletter but I never paid them much attention. Your work is beautiful! Thank you for your sharing spirit.

I use underglaze decals. I tear them, an apply like a collage. I use Duncan Clear with added Mason Stains. Sky Blue and Taupe. It loks like a grey-blue Celadon.

I am very interested to know if you are spraying with a stencil or using decals? Very interesting work. Your clear appears to pool almost celadon at the inside edge of the bottom.
