I thank you for this. Gorgeousness. You are such a good teacher. I like how you simplify these processes, although they take patience. I ❤ that you show the final glazed pieces and explain the finishing glaze, but I would like to see that done as well. Many thanks and keep'em coming. My blank pots intimidate me!!

This is one of my favorite subscriptions. I’m always excited to see what you come up with next. And it’s always great.

Ann, to prevent bleeding I read once you can brush over the paper stencil with the color that’s under it, let that firm up and it seals the stencil. You can then add the contrasting color over the top and it’s supposed to prevent bleeding. I’ve never tried it but it’s worth a try ! Love your videos. 😊😊

Paper resist is a favourite detail of mine. Thanks for your interpretation and design.

You are the master at this type of design for sure as well as freehand painting with underglaze. I watch these videos and get all excited and know I have velvet underglazes in my garage but then remember that my studio fires to cone 10 and I get discouraged. Thinking of ways to get around this. They don't allow low or mid fire clay in the studio. We bisque to cone 04. Could I bisque fire, then high fire, then use underglaze on the naked pieces and then put them through the bisque kiln again to get the vibrant colors? Would that be hot enough for the velvets?

Wonder if you can take a very fine misting spray to wet your dry grasses instead of painting on the water or dipping the grass stencil into water before you lay it down ?

Great projects Ann! Have you tried wetting your paper before you put it on the piece? Vaughn Smith does it that way. I'm wondering if it is easier to deal with the paper when it's wet or when it's dry. I can see this working well with sgraffito designs too. Thanks for posting!

Hi Ann,
Can I use this technique with real fern leaves? Love your videos!

[dragonboatphoenix]

Hi Ann, awesome video as always. But just a question, did you do all these paper resist techniques on greenware or bisque. I am thinking bisque?

[ufaflunic]

Thank you for this tutorial! I'm wondering, do you have any tips on how you position/find smaller circles on a plate that are always so neatly centered?

Bisküvi pişirim üzerine mi bu yapıştırma işlemi yapılıyor ❤

[betsykennedy]

What happens if I miss any of the paper? Does it just burn away in the kiln?
