EXTRA greenware warpage update. Dried underweight stopped warping in that stage. I'll update here for the bisque and glaze fire.

Great work! Are you using a white clay body or slip or sig over red clay on cobalt brushwork tiles?

Great brushwork! So natural and unforced. Is your cobalt your own recipe, such a lovely shade of blue. Great result.

Also, and apologies for bombarding you, what is your mix of cobalt to water please.

is that just cobalt and water?

With the tiles that you showed yourself stacking you said they had been fired? Do you mean biscuit fired and if so why are you stacking them. I am interested in the tiles you showed at the beginning of the video that already had white on them with the blue decoration. Had these been biscuit fired or glaze fired yet. The tile that you are decorating in this video. Are they white clay so the blue will end up showing on the white and then you will clear glaze them. Im interested in trying to get a white background, maybe using slip, and then painting on the raw slip on leather hard clay when the slip is dry or biscuit firing it and painting on the biscuit fired slip and then putting a clear on top. Im finding it really hard to find anything on line apart from our videos but they don’t quite make it clear what method you are using re clay and firing etc. many thanks for any advice you can give.
