Instructions
- Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
- On the DSS-0147 Island screen, locate the small pineapple. Draw an outline around it in permanent marker. Cut it out with excess screen around the edges.
- Squeeze around 2 TBS of SC-15 onto the palette. Add a pinch of AC-310 Silkscreen Medium. Mix with a palette knife until it becomes the consistency of peanut butter. You may need to add more silkscreen medium or glaze.
- Place the pineapple in the center of the plate. While holding the screen firmly in place, take a small amount of premixed silkscreen medium, and gently rub in circles starting in the center and working outward.
- Wash the screen and repeat as pictured.
- Squeeze 1 TBS of SC-6 Sunkissed, SC-11 Blue Yonder, SC-13 Grapel, SC-27 Sour Apple, SC-73 Candy Apple Red and SC-97 Cant-elope onto the palette. Thin each glaze with water so that they are the consistency of water.
- Using the Script Liner with thinned SC-73 Candy Apple Red, apply 1 coat to the left side of the pineapple. Dip the same brush into thinned SC-97 Cant-elope and apply 1 coat next to that coat. Dip the same brush into thinned SC-6 Sunkissed and apply 1 coat next to that coat. Dip the same brush into thinned SC-13 Grapel and apply 1 coat up to the right side of the pineapple. You can brush with water to help blend the colors. Repeat for all pineapples.
- Using the Script Liner with thinned SC-11 Blue Yonder, apply 1 coat to the bottom of the leaves. Dip the same brush into thinned SC-27 Sour Apple and apply 1 coat of the middle of the leaves. Dip the same brush into thinned SC-6 Sunkissed and apply 1 coat to the top of the leaves. You can brush with water to help blend the colors. Repeat for all pineapples.
- Dip the Script Liner into the thinned SC-73 Candy Apple Red. Tap the center of the brush on your finger to splatter glaze onto the plate. Repeat with thinned SC-97 Cant-elope and SC-6 Sunkissed.
- Dip plate into NT-CLR Clear Dipping glaze.
- Fire to cone 06.
