What is Overglaze Porcelain?
Fine colored brushwork sits on milky porcelain glaze, with enamel strokes rising slightly from the surface. Soft glaze reflections and minute crazing frame a painting that remains visibly ceramic.
Overglaze decoration sits on a glazed ceramic surface, distinct from sculpting the form itself.
A highlight crossing both a painted flower and bare white porcelain shows their shared supporting surface.
How the style changes different subjects
- Portrait
- Glazed skin and clothing give rounded features the appearance of a painted ceramic figure.
- Landscape
- Scenery becomes a small ceramic tableau with glossy curves and fewer rough textures.
- Objects
- Glaze thickness and rounded highlights replace the object's original material.
- Subjects
- Choose rounded people, animals, stems or vessels with broad forms that show glaze and thickness.
