Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque.  Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.  
  2. Using a CB-604 #4 Soft Fan, apply 3 coats of FN-001 White to the top of the canvas.  Allow to dry! 
  3. Using a pencil, trace on the patter wit AC-230 Clay Carbon Paper under the patter.  Glaze needs to be dry for the Clay Carbon Paper will transfer. 
  4. Place some of each of the EZ Strokes onto a tile or foam plate for a pallet. If any of the colors are real thick add a drop or two of AS957 Thin N Shade to thin the color to a brushing consistency. 
  5. Refer to patter color placement for where each color goes.  You can also change the color locations or add additional EZ Strokes.  
  6. Using a CB-602 #2 Soft Fan, wet the brush with water, touch a paper towel to remove excess water then lay the brush flat on the pallet and wiggle the brush up to the color to get the color on the brush.  Apply the color to the marked area of the flower. You can adjust the color saturation with the amount of color you add to the flower area. 
  7. Using a CB-408 #8 Pointed Round, Stroke in the leaves with the colors marked on the color placement page, some have two colors or two coats for color saturation.  Also apply the flower centers with EZ 012 Cobalt Jet Black. 
  8. Using a CB-110 #10/0 Liner, outline, and detail with EZ 012 Cobalt Jet Black. 
  9. Stilt and fire to cone 06. 
  10. Using a OB-901G #0 Liner (Gold Handle), detail the design with OG 801 Bright Gold.  Clean Brush with OA 901 Essence. 
  11. Stilt and fire to cone 018.
