Instructions

  1. Using a damp sponge dust off the bisque to eliminate dust.
  2. Using the clay carbon paper and the pattern trace the pattern onto the pie plate.  Note:  Only one side of the Clay Carbon Paper transfers.  To test, lay the Clay Carbon Paper on the bisque and with a pencil or pen draw a line.  If the line transfers you are good to go, if not, turn the Clay Carbon Paper over and try again. You may also need to cut a dart into the paper so it lays down in the pie plate.
  3. Use the RB-106 #6 Script Liner to apply four coats of SW-510 Blue Gloss.  Allow the shine to fade before applying the next coat.
  4. Using the same brush apply 4 coats of SW-503 Orange Gloss to the mountain and the foreground under the cactus shrubs.
  5. For the darker areas in the mountain, mix SW-504 Red Gloss and SW-507 Bright Green for a light brown.
  6. For the dark brown ground, mix SW-504 Red Gloss with SW-509 Dark Green to make a dark brown. Use the script liner and apply four coats of glaze allowing the coat to fade before applying the next coat of glaze. 
  7. The cactus has two sections of green.  The dark side or the right of the  Saguaro is SW-509  Dark Green - 4 good coats using the Script Liner.
  8. The light sections of the cactus is 4 good coats of SW-507 Bright Green Gloss.
  9. The cactus flowers is one good coat of SW-502 Yellow Gloss with a dab of SW-504 Red Gloss in the center.
