Instructions

1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
2. On a palette, with a palette knife, mix SC-15 Tuxedo with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to thicken to the consistency of peanut butter.
3. Using the mask from DSS-0116 Stylized, center above the eyes on the bisque, with the grain side up. Rub the thickened SC-15 Tuxedo over the screen, omitting the face part of the image.
4. Using the feathers from DSS-0116 Stylized, grain side up, screen around the mask.
5. On a palette, with a palette knife, mix SG-403 Red with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to thicken to the consistency of peanut butter. 
6. Using the lips from DSS-0116 Stylized, screen with the SG-403 Red mixture on the mask of MB-1384 Masquerade Box.
