Instructions
- Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.

- Condition a CB-110 #10/0 Liner by: dampen the brush in water and squeeze out any excess water. Load the brush with AC-525 Brush Cleaner then squeeze between a paper towel.
- Apply AC-302 Wax Resist to create an edge around the flower and stems, going an 1/8 inch onto the black glaze and some on the SC-84 Dee Jon. Wax Resist the center of the flower.
- Using a CB-106 #6 Script Liner, apply 2 even coats of SG-202 White Cobblestone over the stems and leaves, brush the second coat when the first coat has lost its shine.
