Do not use Vanadium on surfaces with contact with food. It is toxic. This glaze is very easy to manipulate color. For a food safe buttery yellow , eliminate the vanadium increase the rutile, reduce the zircopax to a lower %

Love the raku! I fired these in Texas, must be the water...
where is texas? I am in Texas. If you are a winter texan, I am in the lower Rio Grande valley. I have a very nice large raku kiln and would love some clay folk company.

These are really wonderful. What a celebration of locale! Do you live near me? I like the kingfisher. We have three types that race up and down our Resaca..old oxbow of the Rio Grande. I recognized many things in the tiles. Great project.

Artist's statement:
As a nation we shared the heavy loss of civilian lives on September 11. We suffered grief for months as search and rescue teams continued to filter through the debris looking for the remains of the people who perished. I believe Mayor Giuliani expressed the magnitude of our loss in that every life, every person is a story. Every day more stories appeared in the newspapers with photographs of people missing. As an artist I searched for a way to express this. I have reproduced the image of a book
21 times in clay adding pages gently turning as if blown by the wind to reveal the story's progress. These stories were abruptly ended. These books have been burned as if censored. They tell a story illegible but symbolically of what has survived out of the ashes. –Marcia Selsor May, 2002
