Fusion Cross Finished

Here's the cross after firing the glass...

I'm not crazy about it. As for the opaque colors, the yellow and sky blue don't work. The purple is not too bad. The translucent colors blend in too much but they kind of work. The blue grotto glaze went more to a metallic brown. Not sure I like it.

Fusion Cross Part 3

Added some crushed glass or frit to the sections.

It's in the kiln and ready to be fired again for glass temperatures. I used some pretty mismatched colors of glass with some opaque and some translucent. We'll see how it turns out.

Fusion Cross Part 2

Here's the current state of the fusion cross with the blue grotto glaze after firing.

Now I can add glass to the sections.

Ceramic/Glass Fusion Cross

I'm making this ceramic/glass fusion cross. What is that? you ask. Well stay tuned...

First I take the ceramic cross and paint it with a glaze. This glaze is called "Blue Grotto." It's not very blue yet. (Note the sections--hint, hint).
