4 Ways to Make it Stick - Painting Pottery With Minerals

For my October livestream we will be discussing how to get minerals to adhere to the pottery. There were 4 ways that the prehistoric potters got minerals to stick to the surface of a pot, in this livestream I will discuss each of them in detail, provide examples and answer questions about it. Also of course I will be answering any of your pottery related questions live. Drop in and say "hi".
