Super Quick Terra Sig! Plus, Horsehair and Feather Raku Create interesting surfaces with horsehair and feather raku! Marcia Selsor

Using horsehair and feathers in raku firing yields incredible marks that can't be created in any other type of firing. But for optimal results in horsehair and feather raku, you should have a smooth surface. Marcia Selsor creates this ideal surface with terra sigillata, and I loved her no-muss-no-fuss method for mixing sig.

In this video, Marcia demonstrates this technique and a horsehair and feather raku firing. - Jennifer Poellot Harnetty, editor
