How to make
For each dish you will need half the pack of the 85g limo clay
Roll your half into a ball in your hands
Flatten to create an circular shape, try and keep the thickness consistent as you roll the ball out
Pinch the sides of the circle upwards and mould an edge with the tip of your fingers working around the flattened circle to create a dish shape
Place on an ovenproof dish and bake for 20 minutes on 110 degrees celsius. Make your the dishes are placed down so they sit flatly as they will set to shape when baked. Leave to cool before painting.
For your mushroom shape, use the red posca pen to draw a half moon shape with circles inside, colour in leaving the circles white
Using the black pen add a line along the bottom of the mushroom head and draw vertical lines down to create depth to your mushroom head
Now draw the bottom of the mushroom to finish your motif and repeat across your clay dish.
For the next motif you'll need to draw a curved line upwards with the posca pen
Add your leaf shapes up the step making sure they mirror each other to create a foliage motif
Colour your leaves in
Repeat across your dish and add a painterly line around the rim of the dish to frame your pattern
Your next motif begins with a simple curved line with more lines working outwards from it
Add berries shapes with another colour pen drawing and colouring in circles at the top of your branches to create a berry branch motif, repeat across your dish and again add a frame around your pattern by colouring in the rim of the dish.
