Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Wash the screen and repeat as pictured.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. Dip plate into NT-CLR Clear Dipping glaze.
  11. Fire to cone 06.
