Found a very interesting article about alternatives to the traditional wax resist method. I’ll be using some left over parafin wax once I get into dipping my vessels into slips and glazes.

I also found a very interesting Korean potter – Choe Jae Ho who is making some beautiful chawan! So much variation in a single form. He has quite a presence on youtube but I was not able to find a personal website. This video features an amazing array of his chawan – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eub652cswfw
