Fun Project Idea!
CANVAS POURING WITH SCULPTING MEDIUM
Instructions:
  1. Begin with properly fired bisque. Use a damp sponge to remove any dust.
  2. Tape off an “X” shape on the canvas then add sculpting medium to the un-taped triangle areas. Let the Sculpting Medium dry.
  3. Using the tape, create a wall to stop the glaze from falling off the side.
  4. Spray surface to dampen with the mister bottle.
  5. Fill pouring cup with SC-85 Orkid, SC-1 Pink-A-Boo, SX-18 Rosey Posey, SC-13 Grapel, and SC-33 Fruit of the Vine.
  6. Begin with a straight pour (pouring onto the middle of the canvas).
  7. Optional: Move the glaze through the “X” shape without the Sculpting Medium
  8. Mist glaze with mister bottle for an easier spread.
  9. Pour left over layered glaze to the Sculpting Medium areas.
  10. Tilt canvas to spread glaze across surface.
  11. Mist the edges while tape is still intact. Begin removing one side of tape at a time and mist along the edge to help glaze fall easily.
  12. Fire to cone 05.
