Controlling Cobblestone

Designer: Marcia Roullard

Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Using the Soft Fan with SC-27 Sour Apple, apply 3 coats to the front and sides of the canvas. Allow glaze to dry between coats.
  3. Using the ruler and pencil, make a diagonal line across the front of the canvas. Then make 2 lines perpendicular to the first line. They should be spaced to create similar sized areas.
  4. Using the Detail Liner with AC-302 Wax Resist, trace over the pencil lines.
  5. Using the Script Liner with SG-201 Black Cobblestone, apply 1, 2 and 3 coats to each area above the diagonal line. Only apply additional coats after the glaze is no longer shiny. It is important to make coats even.
  6. Using the Script Liner with SG-202 White Cobblestone, apply 1, 2 and 3 coats to each area below the diagonal line. Only apply additional coats after the glaze is no longer shiny. It is important to make coats even.
  7. Using the Script Liner with SC-11 Blue Yonder, apply 1 coat to the border of each section glazed with SG-202 White Cobblestone. Only apply after the glaze is no longer shiny.
  8. Fire to cone 06.
