Instructions
-
Begin with properly fired cone 04 bisque. Moisten a sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
-
Locate the Santa and holly on DSS-0162 Holiday Icons screen. Draw an outline around them in permanent marker. Cut them out with excess screen around the edges.
-
Squeeze 1 TBS of SC-15 Tuxedo 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 Santa in the center of the plate, shiny side down. While holding it firmly in place, take a small amount of premixed silkscreen medium and gently rub in circles staring in the center and working outward. Next, place the holly on the plate and repeat.
-
Squeeze 1 TBS of SC-11 Blue Yonder and SC-45 My Blue Heaven onto the palette. Take the sponge and dip it into the glaze. Sponge the background, alternating between the 2 colors.
