It’s all about layers…

I have been working on my tableware for two weeks adding layers of decoration, the first stages are frustrating, because you expect they will look better later, but whilst they are at this stage, every time someone comes over you want to shout “DON’T LOOK AT THEM!” just in case people assume you just have bad taste. It's a stressful time.

The first layer shown previously with cobalt decals.


The second layer was black enamel text; I feel this was when they looked there worst.



Once the third layer, digitally printed full colour decals, of my watercolours were added they looked more exciting.




I did another layer of colour decals on some to fill in gaps. Then the final layer is brown/gold or platinum decals, which are also used on my bowls.
