Wiseman Ceramics

I performed almost 20 tests this past summer (with my glaze assistant Judy Wang) using the elements known as Lanthanides as colorants in crystalline glazes. This was encouraged after meeting David Pier.
I was a private artist at Red Star Studios at the time, while David was teaching at KCAI, and had just had an article on lanthanides published.
The article is still available on line at Bracker’s Good Earth Clays here.
(please contact me if the link does not work).

Update: Jon Singer was invited to LatticeStructures to present on his findings, after having his own article published in Clay Times: “Fluorescent Glazes”.
