Test Yumoni for Crawling Glaze

Here's a handful of test yunomi that I would really like to post. (It's a personal thing.)
This is a cobalt slip under a cone 6 white liner with the crackle and crawl glaze over it. It produces a very nice blue and matte white fused pinhole effect, but it's very, very hit and miss.

This is our studio's blue hares fur under the crawl glaze.

This is a thin crawling glaze under a blue hares fur glaze. This appears to be a very stable glaze combination. the white liner at the rim create really nice optics in the gaze surface. It's really a very handsome glaze combination.

This is a basic crawl glaze over a cobalt slipped bisque.

This is the crawling glaze over the studio's clear liner. This combination creates lots of texture! Very very Arty, but not really practical.

It is really interesting see all these nuances that are so alien to someone like me. Such beautiful and interesting effects I imagine are generally taken for granted.
