DVD: Ceramic Decals New
Ideas and Techniques with Justin Rothshank
Decals are a great way to spice up your surface decorations. Used for

your pots, think again. Justin Rothshank is one of several New Age potters
who have taken decalmania into the 21st century. Justin draws on his
extensive experimentation with decals to explain the ins and outs to using
them for ceramic art. Over the years he has pushed this to the limits of

interesting results. From applying iron oxide laser decals to leather hard
work and then using them in a soda firing, to layering them with
commercial decals, Justin shares a wide range of techniques and effects. 1
