Watercolour or not?

I’ve been devoting a great deal of time to developing a method for overglaze painting ( or china painting as it’s often called) that is more akin to watercolours than to traditional china painting methods. I mix my overglaze paints with sugar and water in the wells of my palette, and then use water to paint with as you would with watercolours. As I’m working on a ceramic tile you cannot wet it first like paper, my way around this is to spritz on water allowing the colours to mingle and run.

This is another painting using the same ‘watercolour’ technique for a china painting
