An absolutely comprehensive video demonstrating a wide variety of mixed mixed techniques. I really enjoyed watching how Ann plays with layering elements and translucent glazes. An insightful look at what goes on inside her head and why she makes the choices she does. I suspect that I will be watching this video many times again to remind me of what's possible.
