My research explored the possibilities of achieving the raku halo through variations of the standard engobe (pronounced on-gobe) and oxide formulas, using ceramic vessels as media. This included alterations of the ingredients, consistencies, and methods of application. Throughout the research, a journal was kept including individual information about research pieces, a statement of results, and my reaction to those effects. From this information, an analysis of the completed vessels was compiled.
The UNT Libraries serve the university and community by providing access to physical and online collections, fostering information literacy, supporting academic research, and much, much more.
