Magic Flow Technique #8 shown on a simple jar


Cover bisque with 4 flowing coats of Fieldstone glaze, inside and out. Allow the glaze to dry between coats.

Cover most of the jar top with 2 coats of Magic Flow. Allow the glaze to dry between coats. Set aside.

Draw tulip pattern at various heights onto sides of jar, adding long tulip type leaves to each. Paint one tulip with White Birch, one Robin's Egg, one Purple Dusk, and one Golden Plains. Paint leaves with Green Ash.

Using a smaller brush, paint strokes of Bright Wine over White Birch, shading from bottom and leaving some white showing. Using the same shading technique, paint Bright Nautical over Robin's Egg, Bright Papaya over Golden Plains and Bright Grape over Purple Dusk. Shade and detail the leaves with Bright Kelp.

When all painting is done, use a long liner brush to outline petals and leaves with 2 coats of Magic Flow. Add stems in the same manner. Using a round brush paint Magic Flow around rim and base of jar and dot blobs of Magic Flow on jar in various places. Allow to dry. Stilt and fire to cone 06.
