Cosmic Tea Dust over Rainforest by Jessica Cagle

Fantastic Mug by Jessica Cagle

Jessica Cagle’s combo is Cosmic Tea Dust over Rainforest. She applied about three coats of Rainforest first, then coated the inside and outside with Cosmic Tea Dust about two-thirds of the way down so it overlaps the Rainforest. Cosmic Tea Dust needed several coats, around five, to get a uniform surface. If you put Rainforest overlapping slightly, it creates a really cool yellow line where the two glazes interact. The result is a smooth blend from teal-green at the bottom to a dark, speckled Cosmic Tea Dust surface above, with that bright yellow line in between. The combo isn’t very popular yet, but it’s very expressive.
