Yay, good luck to you! Painting with underglazes is easy. Just remember to clear them with a zinc-free clear glaze so they're food safe. Thanks for watching! ❤️
I’ve recently developed an interest in pottery, both making and painting (never tried it). Don’t have a clue where to begin. Can you do a beginners guide to what to know and do?
This video was filmed on my birthday! Awesome! My son named Chris as well. Most of all I love your work and your teaching- so detailed. Please keep making them! Thank you!
@@WildAcornsArtStudio oh please do. I just cannot get the right consistency of UG. My brush tend dry out real fast. I think I was too afraid of adding water to the UG. 😅😅😅
Thank you! Yes, they really do. Sometimes I think I should just leave them painted-only, but the colors just don't pop that way. Thanks for watching!! 😀
Love your work Lisa. Do you know what gauge your xiem tip is? My tips are 16-18 gauge and they are too wide. Plus the black runs like the dickens. You have a very relaxed delivery style. Very much appreciate it. Thank you, Glynne
Thanks so much. Glad you liked the videos. I use a #20 tip for the Xiem. I thin the black underliner a little but so it flows better. If you turn the Applicator bottle upside down and it runs out or drips a lot, then it's too thin.
Loving your video. Thank you for sharing! Did you say you are bisque firing at 04 and glaze firing at cone 5? What type if clay are you using? Thank you again!
Thank you so much! I usually bisque to 04, and glaze fire to cone 5, with a 10 minute hold. I am using B-Mix 5 w/grog. Since I also love to handbuild, I buy my clay with the grog, for more stability.
Thanks, Lisa. Love your work. Can you tell me what size and profile your flower brushes are? They look like they might be described as "round" brushes. But what number would they be? Thanks!
Hi there! Thanks so much for this video. Have you had success mixing these underglazes to create other colours? Like, yellow and radiant red for orange… I see some sources say it can work but it never works when I try to do it myself and that seems to be the general consensus. I’ve had success mixing colour + white to get different shades, but mixing for new colours doesn’t seem to work… I’d greatly appreciate your insight!
Hello. Yes, I mix the colors all the time. You may just need to add more yellow or more red to make the orange you want, depending how pigmented the yellow and red is. Some of the underglazes have more pigment/stain than other ones. Like Intense Yellow has way more yellow pigment than just yellow. That's why it's more expensive. So I would suggest just trying to readjust the amount you're adding of each color until you get the color you want. Good luck! 😀 Thanks for watching!
Only on a couple of occasions, and I believe it was due to the dust from the underglaze rejecting the clear glaze. So now I do take a dry towel and just gently wipe it over the underglaze design to make sure no glaze dust is on the surface.
I did a kiln opening video for my older videos, which was posted about a week or two after the video. On my newer videos, I have posted the final pictures on the front page of the video. Thanks!

Beautiful as usual :)
You are like the Bob Ross of the underglaze world. Instead of happy trees they're happy flowers.
Lol, that's hilarious! 😂 I love Bob Ross!!! ❤️

Gosh, I use all sorts of different sizes. They are just cheap brushes from Hobby Lobby.
@@WildAcornsArtStudio Thanks!! So kind of you to reply!!
@@jsdhornby Very welcome!!

@@WildAcornsArtStudio Thanks so much for your reply!
Do you put the white base coat on greenware or bisqueware?
This is white clay, so no white slip coat is needed. :-)
Wanted to add, that when I do add white slip to the dark clay I sometimes use, the slip must be added to the clay just before the leatherhard stage.
Sometimes my clear glaze, after underglaze, doesn't coat properly. Do you have this problem?
Only on a couple of occasions, and I believe it was due to the dust from the underglaze rejecting the clear glaze. So now I do take a dry towel and just gently wipe it over the underglaze design to make sure no glaze dust is on the surface.
Do you have any photos of the final products?
I did a kiln opening video for my older videos, which was posted about a week or two after the video. On my newer videos, I have posted the final pictures on the front page of the video. Thanks!
Where do you buy your underglazes?
I buy them from Queen City Clay, here in Cincinnati. They are mostly Amaco Velvets.
How High do you fire?
Hello. I fire to a cone 5, with a 10 or 15 minute hold.
Thank you! Is that 1180 C ?
That's Fahrenheit. :-)
But isn’t cone 5 the same as 1180 fahrenheit?
Cone 5 is 2167 degrees Fahrenheit.
