Show Notes
Today on the show I talk with Bryan Hopkins. You probably know him from his exquisite porcelain vessels, but you might not have guessed some of those forms are made from low-fire porcelain. In our interview we talk about formulating low-fire translucent porcelains and how he uses a neodymium grate magnet to create speck free clay bodies. To see examples of his work visit www.hopkinspottery.com.
