thank you

These designs would look beautiful on nails using gel foiling!

yes they would

thanks

yes

there are some recipes you can mix yourself and i will look them up tomorrow and post them here for you...

you may buy 1. dark tinting oil and mix with dry paint. 2. Kay knapp has a paint over pen oil (www.kayknapp.com/Results1.asp?Category=%25&Keyword=pen+oil ) use by itself. these you can mix yourself 3. dry paint with a light capaba oil ..add a little lavender, 4. dry paint with fat oil thin with lavender oil 5. dry paint with anise oil all these recipes mix to an ink consistency.

All the glazed porcelain ware is fired at between 1300-1600 degrees. depending on the colors you are using, so the black or dark green scroll work is fired to about 1400-1500. These that we use in this porcelain painting demo are all "over glaze " paints intended to paint, of course, over glazed surfaces so that they sink into the glazes when fired to become permanent part of the surface. we do have painters that work in bisque ware and use these same paints on bisque, but do not think they glaze afterwards due to the firing temperature of the glazes. mostly high fire glazes ...right....then it would fire out this paint....as far as oils, it has to be oils that will not flame up in the kiln, "not flammable "...we mix with mineral oil and turp. then let dry.....hope this helps. Joanna

thanks Joanna. One last question, the colors could use mason stain powder, correct?

i do not know what mason stain powder is, so i can not reply to that....

it is encapsulated stains. So I guess you are using other products. What is the powder pigment you mixed with oil?

here are some places that sells the paints. www.dallaschina.com ,www.marylandchina.com/china-painting-supplies/paints.html........

Mourhaf Agh thank you for your question. Yes I paint pieces to eat or drink from. They stoped making paints with lead but there are a few around still try this site. Dallaschina.com I will look for more sites for you and let you know.

@@JoannaBurch thank you very much ! 🌺

thanks

The pen point is just a very fine quill pen that you can order from Maryland China or rynnchina.com online. I have used all kinds but the finer points are best. the holder that holds the point can be ordered also.

+Megan Thwaites you may order those pens and pen points from online co.'s - here are a couple www.Marylandchina.com and www.dallaschina.com thanks for viewing....

Ruth, I have taken instructions in porcelain painting (china Painting) and am a teacher myself. I do not know where you live, but it would be my pleasurer to find you a teacher, you will love it.....

Joanna Burch Hi Joanna, Thank you for your kind reply. I live near Grand Rapids MI. I have never seen anything like this advertised as far as classes go. I know there has to be someone in my area who could teach me. :) I wish we lived closer so you could teach me.

Carol Flegel Didn't realize I was signed in with my mom's name. The last comment was from me, not her. :)

Carol Flegel Carol, I have a list of teachers in Michigan if you would like to call one to see who is near you. I do not know how to attach a list here, but you may contact me on my website and I can send it to you from there. www.joannaburch.com

Joanna Burch Thank you! I will check into this. :)

where are you located? yes you can use a pen with roman gold. a lady in Indiana has some decals you could go over in pen.

No Sharon i do not have a video on doing a monogram. in the past i have traced a design of the correct size onto tracing paper then taken a graphite pencil and covered the back of the tracing paper with graphite. Then with a ball point pen, traced the monogram onto the porcelain. the lighter, the better. i think it might be good to do some of it in pen and fire, then do your gold work only because it would give you some preliminary lines to work from. the Roman gold could be thinned down to a link consistency to write with. use a new pen so that you will not contaminate the gold, then keep that pen for gold only. I guess that would be a good subject for a new video! let me know if you have anymore questions.

@@JoannaBurch Thanks, this really helps! Can you tell me what type of pen to use?

@@sharonzion3301 any really fine tip pen point will do in a handled holder. This company in Texas sells fine points and you might look online to order or just call. Dallas China. dallaschina.com/... they will also sell holders... Btw. how did you do on your monogram?

The line width is dependent on how hard your pressure is on you pen. As you have probably noticed that the pen nib spreads as you press down letting more ink come through. It does help also to keep a 45 degree angle between your pen and the surface. Also when mixing your pen medium and the paint together( which I always advise using dry paint to mix instead of a paint that is premixed for painting) , mix it to the consistency ink so it drips off you pallet knife in several drops. That is loose enough to run through your pen nib. Hope this helps you. Let me know. Thanks for your comment.

this is a over glaze powder that you can put onto glazed surfaces, then fire in the kiln. the paint then heats up with the glaze and sinks down to become part of the glaze. it is then permanent and will not wash of or scratch off. thanks for your question....

it is an overglaze paint and fire into the glaze

+cameraTV1 Thanks for your comment. It does help me in future videos. As I said it was my first, and it was meant to let everyone know that technique was available. the pigment is an over glaze paint used in painting ceramics and porcelain item. it comes in a powder form and mixes with all types of oil. the pen oil can be a variety of oils, dark tenting oil, turpentine, and some places sell already mixed just for pen work. you may use any type of kiln as long as it goes to a 1500 degrees. I have Paragon brand. the pen point is a very fine "zebra" brand. if you have any other questions, please let me know. Joanna
