Summer Fun-fetti Pineapple Plate

Designer: Liz Martinez

Instructions

  1. Using the Soft Fan brush, paint the entire top of the plate with 2 coats of SC-16 Cotton Tail.
  2. 2. Allow the Cotton Tail to dry well.
  3. 3. Use a pen to apply your Pineapple pattern (make sure you have the paper going the right side up, you can always test a
  4. small line before tracing the whole thing).
  5. 4. We are going to paint the background of the plate with 2 coats of SC-45 My Blue Heaven working our way around the
  6. pineapple.
  7. 5. Next, to add some depth, we are going to add SC-11 Blue Yonder to the background close to the pineapple. It’s best to do
  8. this step while both colors are wet to allow them to blend. We will do 2 coats on this shading.
  9. 6. Use RB-116 #6 Round brush to paint in the sections of the pineapple on the right side with 2 heavy coats of SC-97 Cantelope.
  10. 7. Next, paint the remaining sections of the pineapple on the left side with 2 heavy coats of SC-89 Cute Pie Coral.
  11. 8. Paint the sections of the leaves with 2 heavy coats of SC-27 Sour Apple.
  12. 9. To fill in the lines on the pineapple, we are going to use SC-27 Sour Apple and RB-106 #6 Liner brush to apply 2 coats.
  13. 10. Then randomly highlight the lines on the right side with SC-9 Jaded, and the lines on the left side with SC-26 Green Thumb.
  14. We did 2 coats on those lines.
  15. Next we are going to fill in the space between the leaves with 2 coats of SC-26 Green Thumb.
  16. Flip your plate over and paint 3 coats of SC-16 Cotton Tail to the back and edges. We are not clear glazing this plate so we want to make sure all the bisque is covered.
  17. We are going to add some texture to our pineapple and background using Jungle Gems. We aren’t going for full coverage, just doing one coat to get the crystals to adhere. Stir your CG-718 Blue Caprice Jungle Gems and apply one coat concentrating the crystals close to the pineapple and leaves.
  18. Next, stir up your CG-756 Firecracker and add lines to your Cutie Pie Coral sections, we just did a line on two of the four sides.
  19. Repeat step 15, this time using CG-753 Sassy Orange on the Cant-elope sections.
  20. Add one coat of CG-987 Tree Frog to the lighter green part of your leaves.
  21. Finally, add a dot of SC-16 Cotton Tail to the center of each section to highlight.
  22. Fire to cone 06.
