#decoratingwithdirt — Public Fediverse posts

I started calling my little jars of terra sigillata “dirt water.” I’m currently in the surface decorating phase of my process, which I love. It requires patience but I do enjoy the process of applying terra sig with my little Japanese calligraphy brush. Lately, it’s the firing process that has been giving me trouble. I’ve been having problems with sig flaking off—sometimes because of too-thick application or too-high firing temps. #DecoratingWithDirt #WildClay #ceramics
