I like to think of myself as an Agitator, but that goes back 70 years and in Brooklyn.

I'm looking forward to seeing more of your amazingly beautiful pieces that inspire me to go forward and do more experimentation.
BTW do you spray your glazes or brush them?

Thank you, Sherri -
I brush my glazes - have never had a problem with brush marks showing - I suggest trying for a consistent thickness - like 3 layers on top, 2 layers in middle and one layer on bottom, or whatever, and trying different thicknesses and writing down what each piece has - glaze, thickness, firing, etc - the only way to eventually make any kind of sense out of what does what under what conditions.
I'll get you the name of the brushes I use when I'm back in the studio -

Would love the name of your brushes, Arnie - am thinking of doing more brushing. Pondering whether or not to even bother getting the spraybooth set up in my new smaller studio... but I'm sure I'll cave...

Arnie:
Been using those brushes for several years; they load and drop glaze with fairly good accuracy.
