As a high school art teacher, with limited storage space and ventilation, I rely on commercial glazes. I appreciate the work glaze companies do to provide teachers with consistent glazes and technical support. Because of the amount of glaze usage in my classroom, I was able to utilize and transfer that knowledge to my personal work. Still following the practice of experimenting and testing, I have come to use a 3:1 ratio of Amaco Lg-10 Clear and Amaco Lg 24 Light Blue fired to cone 05. The clear dilutes the blue to allow more transparency but still provides depth where it pools.
