[Clayart] Plagiarism

[paul gerhold]

The topic about plagiarism raises an interesting question about sharing glaze recipes. Back when I first started in clay it seemed to be considered almost selfish not to share recipes. Now with so many commercial glazes for sale I wonder if that still applies. Also I have over the years seen several glazes that were made public and then vastly overused making them useless as a way of differentiating one's work.

For myself I do not share or publish glazes and find just helping with advice is a more responsible way of helping the next generation of potters.
