Forever learning.

For this, you need fired-on transfer paper and an HP or Canon laser printer. The toners from these printers contain iron oxide, which fires in the kiln to sepia brown. That way, you can apply photos to your clay, for example. Combined with other graphical techniques, your creativity can get free reign. The results can be stunning, and the technique allows you to highly personalize your work.
