Blue Hydrangea Marbling

Instructions

Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
Apply 1 coat of SW-501 White Gloss to the face of the plate, not including the rim.
Pour alternating stripes of SW-501 White Gloss and SW-508 Black Gloss to the face of the plate and pick plate up to swirl. Continue until desired marbling pattern is achieved.
This will need to dry for a while.
Once the glaze is dry, use a palette knife mix some SW-508 with the food coloring and AC-310 Silkscreen Medium.
Apply the Hydrangea Silkscreen to the plate.
Apply 1 coat of SW-501 White Gloss to the inside of the screened area.
Apply 2 coats of SW-507 Bright Green Gloss to the stem and leaves and 2 coats of SW-506 Bright Blue Gloss to the flower. While the second coat of the blue is wet, sponge a bit of SW-505 Purple Gloss onto the flowers.
Allow glaze to dry before lining up and applying the silkscreen again.
Apply 3 coats of SW-508 Black Gloss to the rim and back of the plate.
Use a damp sponge to clean any excess glaze off of the foot of the plate.
Fire to shelf cone 5/6.
