He uses traditional liquid glazes but also uses dry powder glaze’s that are sifted on to the bisque surface, adhered with misted water, and then preheated before being placed directly into open fire and covered with combustibles— He uses a specially formulated clay body that he makes but work sometimes still cracks due to heat shock. He also does quasi traditional pit firing using mainly sawdust as the combustible.
