Green gives you purple?!




Guess what happens when you put "Olive Green" glaze on top of red earthenware? Go on, guess. Think it just looks randomly dark (like it's supposed to?) NO! I got electric blue on top of purple! A nice effect, sure, but way out of place on middle Byzantine style bowls. Oi, the bright blue shows up even on the thinnest sgraffito lines. (head, desk).

I do rather like my very plain Byzantine cups and the yellow plate.
