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 % Marcia -

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 -

Detail of one book form. This installation in various sizes has been shown at the Archie Bray Warehouse Gallery in Helena, Mt; Toucan Gallery in Billings, MT; Greenville, NC; Hood College in Frederick, MD. The thin pages were formed using slip dried onto plaster to a workable consistency. -

Lots of lizards in and out of the studio. When I was gone from my wheel, a lizard moved under the wheel head. -
