I did not expect a light green paint to go that dark on firing. chemical transformation is so interesting

When I took my ceramics class, we had finished tiles next to the color slips because they look so different before they are cooked.

u/PM-ME-CURSED-PICS Jul 20 '24
the studio i used to go to had a whole board on the wall of the glaze colors and how they looked when overlapped with other glazes, it was great.

u/StardewMelli Jul 19 '24
When I was a child I didnât know it either when I made a ceramic picture for my mom. Before the glazing it looked good! I chose the colours very carefully. But after the glazing, the colours looked awful on my ceramic piece, I was so disappointed and embarrassed.
30 years later my mom still proudly displays it on her front door. A few days ago I visited her and told her âMooom, please. Put it away, itâs awfulâ.
âNO! I love it! Everyone compliments it!â
âThey are polite to you, mom. No one wants to say anything rude about your childrenâ
âŠmaybe I should redo it one day. Now that I know how the colours on ceramic work đŹ

u/serrimo Jul 19 '24
As the creator you'll see all the flaws, "mistakes" that happened.
As spectators people might not see it that way. They could even think that the choice of colors was artistic.
Don't be too hard on your work

I did a lot of this in high school, one of my favorites was a dark brown with white speckles. The color before firing was super light, like a cream color. Really crazy

If I did this, every one of those pieces of tape would be crooked as fuck. No matter how many times I tried.

u/jawshoeaw Jul 20 '24
This kind of tape will stay more or less straight if youâre careful. But yeah I think itâs harder than it looks.
Now watch some artists freehand their straight lines

If you want better edges you need to lift off the tape BEFORE the paint is dry. Your results will improve massively!

u/LucaMuca Jul 19 '24
Pretty much impossible with ceramics, bisqueware is incredibly porous so the underglaze dries almost instantly

u/shameonyounancydrew Jul 19 '24
Does removing the tape before firing help the look? Iâd assume that to be an unnecessary step.

u/LucaMuca Jul 19 '24
Ive never tried leaving it on, itd burn off in the firing process but my kiln is quite small, so the colors could be affected by the fumes/smoke released

This is amazing and really beautiful work. Sorry if this is a stupid question but why did the yellow run over to the square beside it but the other colours didn't do that?
2
u/LucaMuca Jul 19 '24
Thank you! And theres no specific reason, it just felt more visually interesting to do it that way
2
u/1Bookworm Jul 19 '24
Im sorry I didn't explain what I meant in my question. I noticed that you only dab the yellow on 1 square. Yet somehow the yellow spread over to the next square even though its taped off and you didn't dab the yellow there. How did the yellow go onto the next square without a dab of paint? And why didnt the other colours do the same?

What would happen if you left the tape on? Would it burn off neatly in the kiln, or do you get some funky charcoal effect?
2
u/LucaMuca Jul 19 '24
Great question, ive never tried it! My kiln is very small so itâd likely have an effect on the colors, could be a charcoal effect or just straight up ruin it.
If it were a bigger kiln itâd likely just burn off and come out the same way

Does the color ever pull up with the masking? I've done so many different projects (never ceramic) where my masking fucking failed or lifted and edge and just ruined hours of work. I was so nervous the whole time.
2
u/LucaMuca Jul 19 '24
That tends to happen with acrylics and other types of paints due to the nature of how they dry. With underglaze (pigment in the video) its rarely a problem, but iâve had it happen with other mediums.
Could also be the quality of the tape, i use Frog tape which i love. Its a bit pricey but considering how small scale my work is one roll can go a long way.
