  No, but it may grow mold. This is good bacteria and will be good for the clay's workability. It is not harmful bacteria. It can also dry out, so keep it covered and add water as needed.
• What’s the difference between paint and glaze?

  Paints, such as acrylics, oils, watercolors, and pastels, are cold surface techniques and do not require firing. When using paints, it is recommended to seal the surface with a spray sealer. The glaze is a specially formulated material that is to be applied to bisque and then fired to form a glass-like surface.
