Ram -- Horse Hair Treatment on Cermanics










After being bisque fired, ram was heated to 1350 degrees, removed with tongs, and then strands of horse hair...and some of mine...were applied. Just lay the strand against the form. Carbon leaves black marks as the hair zizzles away. Sugar sprinkled on while figure still hot was used for the dots....I'd rather not have them so blobby on the back...could re-fire, but the whole thing was an experiment, not an heirloom (hairloom...hehehehehe).
