Maam- there are so many possibiities, where to start.

I've never liked the "coat" that glaze provides so to get more of the actual surface i've always watered down the glazes , and always seem to keep some of the surface glaze free - love the "rockness" of the surface.

Over the years I've realize most of my work fits best in raku or soda firing.

so some suggestions:

in high fire - you can use stains and than thin wash of a clear or light transparent glaze to "fix" the stains.

wood fire- firing provides the surface

sodafire- use stains and firing provides the surface

raku- metalic glazes and unglazed are is black = wonderful suface and colors.

search the web, read clay books and enjoy.
