Your great grandmother would be proud that you want to carry on the tradition. These videos will help you learn the painting techniques but you should find a local or state china painting chapter to help you with your kiln - they are all different. WOCP.com lists the teachers and organizations by state. Good luck!

Thanks for the terrific feedback. Glad this helped. I have gently used palettes available on mY website. As a beginner you might want to but a few pieces from one of the china companies just to see what the quality is like. You can’t use heavy china or “Corning ware”. The Walmart stuff looks okay but check it for little black inclusions or heavy symbols on back. Take all the price tags off. Good luck! I have weekly workshops at Facebook.com/PaintnPorcelain if you get Facebook every Wed at 10 am EDT.

You’re welcome. Thanks for following.

Thank YOU

Thank YOU

I buy Medium Plus to paint with from DallasChina and clean my brush with Turpenoid. There is a full list of supplies and vendors under “free printables”on my website www.PaintnPorcelain.com

Here is the link to my supply list. www.paintnporcelain.com/collections/free-printables/products/supply-list-to-start-china-painting

Glad I was able to help. As far as a kiln, I have an Evenheat Copper Junior. The largest plate it holds is 8-10” and you only fire for 45 min on high. Pretty foolproof. However I am not an expert. You should ask others who paint if you have a club nearby.

@@Paintnporcelain Thank you so much. I see its a front load. I hope to find one used. China painting is on the top of my bucket list. Blessings.

Good luck.

Best of luck! I’m afraid I buy my porcelain finished and know little about out the process. Keep in mind ceramics/pottery is different than porcelain paintin g

Glad you enjoyed it

You can use lavender oil. I buy my mixture from Dallas China I have also used half Copaiba and half mineral oil to paint with. People use many different mixtures and some have cloves and lavender oil in them. I can only speak from my experience.

@@Paintnporcelain Thank you🙏 for your explanation, this will help much

Absolutely! The idea is to keep dust off so make sure you have a cover that fits well. Glass would be preferred.

Sorry, t your messages just appeared. Yes. You certainly could.

I order from www.dallaschina.com or www.marylandchina.com. I don’t know if either of these mail overseas.

Yes. If the food will touch the paint. For a border I think you’re okay. Dallaschina.com has lead free paints

@@Paintnporcelain thank you for the answer,

Mineral spirits (odorless).

Mineral spirits

Funny you should ask. I was trying to stencil yesterday and it doesn't work but you can use "underlay" to create a raised stamp that you can then paint over to create a border, etc. See my video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fbiGrKV3ucuUlKM.html. You can also put stickers on and paint over with china paint. However, the type of china paint I use must be fired in a kiln. If you use a kiln that is used for ceramics you need to clean out the dust first or it will ruin you project. Hope this helps.

@@Paintnporcelain immensely helpful I will definitely watch the video you posted I've seen other videos in which silkscreen was used with a glaze that was quite thick but it was on bisque ware or green ware thank you once again for the response you have definitely earned a subscriber.

No. I’ve actually never heard of that.

I have a KZfaq video about “Testing Your Paints” that might help.

There are many porcelain painters in India. Not sure if you use the European or American method. The oils as different. IPAT (International Porcelain Art Teachers, Inc.) may have more information. They may know if there are teachers or clubs in your area. Check their website or Facebook page. You can also download free printables on my site that list the items you would need.

I have a small Evenheat kiln called Copper Junior.

Cone is 017. I think around 1400 F according to Google but I’m not positive

There are clubs. I’m in the Detroit metro area. I belong to a club in Berkley,there is also one in Dearborn. Usually they don’t meet in the summer but start up in September. You can find a list of all Michigan clubs at MichiganWOCP.com under the “clubs” tab. Hope this helps.

@@Paintnporcelain thank you very much

I really don’t know. Suggest you call someone at DallasChina.com. They may know since they sell the paints.

I use them on my earthenware and they fire really well

You can paint on any glazed ceramic so long as they are able to be fired to the temp of the China paints

thanks

1/2 Copaiba 1/2 mineral oil

Thanks. I used it because of it’s beauty but no longer. It sits in my studio still - for flowers

I buy my paint from www.DallasChina.com and MarylandChina.com. I use the “over glaze paints” that are fired. On my website www.PaintnPorcelain.com there is a free supply list with contact info for all companies. You just need to go through the checkout process and it will be automatically sent to you as an email attachment that you download and print. It is FREE

@@Paintnporcelain thank you so much! Have a blessing day ahead 💖

@@kimng3394 👍

If you have Facebook you can send a message. My Facebook page is: Paint n Porcelain

Vou ver se há uma maneira de fazer isso

Desculpe, não consigo fazer as legendas

Muito obrigada querida. 😘

Tenho estudios disponiveis no meu site em www.paintnporcelain.com/. Voce pode compra-los e coloca-los no Google Translator

I buy.my china paints from www.dallaschina.com in powder form or www.Marylandchina.com. Maryland China has their own brand and Dallas sells quite a few of the Jayne Houston paints. A Painters Collection has Rynne’s paints (the company is out of business and she sells what they had at www.a painters collection.comb. All are powder over glass paints. I hope that helps

Here is the link to my free printable. Just go through the purchase process and it will not charge you but at the end you will get an email with the attachment. Download the attachment and all the suppliers I use are listed there. Link: www.paintnporcelain.com/products/supply-list-to-start-china-painting?_pos=2&_sid=833036add&_ss=r

Hi. Ann. Thanks. I'm a total beginner so Im not sure if certain or all powders work. If it says it works on glass it is the correct type? I want to buy gold and only found 1 that can b used on many things like ceramics but doesn't mention porcelain. Im confused if there's a difference as both r fired.

@@analiablanco yo u’re looking for “overglaze”. Glass paints require a different heat and must be on glass. You don’t want matt or metallic paints initially.

I meant that as a question sorry

You can only paint china the “American way” starting with a blank piece of china that is white without writing or painting on it. Hope that answered your question.
