You can find previews of Erin's work on Ceramic Arts Daily and YouTube. Join us tomorrow.

Joining Slip Recipe

We used a joining slip recipe from Martha Grover in last week's Extruder Workshop. Here's a link to provide you with instructions on how to make it. Works really well and avoids some of the problems of water based slip as a joining medium.
