Once I decided to paint a plate, for this I already used stained glass paints once. However, this time it was decided to make a brilliant painting, for this I decided to try multi-colored glitters and permanent markers.
1. I took this sample, using the GIMP program, selected the outlines and erased the center
and this is what came out:
I glued each of the parts from the outer surface with adhesive tape.
3. It would be very boring to make an ornament in one color, so I decided to paint a plate in three colors: blue, red and green. First I drew with a permanent marker on patterned paper, then on a plate and applied glitter on top. The markers were the cheapest M-Union, so there was no full staining of the pattern, it became translucent, and that's all I need - the glitters shone through the pattern! I applied glitter and got this ornament:
4. Now it's the turn of the inner pattern! Since the initial pattern of three colors seemed rather banal and boring to me, it was decided to make the inner pattern of one element: I mirrored and copied the element in the same GIMP program, combined and flattened a little, and then selected the edge, like this:
5. I also printed it out and painted it in three colors, then attached it to the inside of the plate and translated it with permanent markers and glitter on top.
6. Finally, I found that the edges of the ornament looked a little blurry and therefore outlined with a clearer and thinner (important for stroke) black Centropen marker.

Easy lesson
Painting plates in any style is best done with acrylic paints, as they are the most resistant to external influences - water, sunlight, dust. In addition, it is convenient to work with them, since they resemble gouache in consistency and do not require additional means for dilution and special brushes (for example, compared to oil and tempera).
To fix the paint and maintain brightness for a long time, it is recommended to cover the finished product on top with a special colorless acrylic varnish.
Painting a ceramic plate can be done with different techniques, it all depends on the skills, imagination and desire of the author.
Beginners and insecure craftsmen are advised to use stencils for accurately applying patterns. They can be downloaded, printed and cut out, or purchased from craft stores. Painting in this technique can be done both with paints using a brush or a cotton swab, and with the help of a special marker.
This technique is well suited for children, as it does not require special skills in drawing. All that is needed is to fix a stencil picture on the plate, for example, with adhesive tape, and paint over the “empty” places.
A simple but elegant painting - dotted - is done with contour paints, which are sold in tubes and do not require dilution. The tubes are equipped with spouts, which makes it much easier to apply dots and fine lines.
For painting in dot technique you will need:
- plain ceramic plate (preferably white);
- degreaser (alcohol, nail polish remover);
- contour paints;
- sample;
- carbon paper or soft pencil;
- brushes;
- palette;
- acrylic lacquer.
Progress:
- Wipe the plate with alcohol or other means. To do this, you can use a cotton pad;
- Using carbon paper, transfer the drawing to the dishes. To do this, combine it with a carbon paper, fix it on a plate and circle the lines with a pencil. You can also make a homemade carbon copy by painting reverse side drawing;
- Pressing on the tube, apply with a contour at equal distances points. Their diameter depends on the pressing force. As a rule, first large dots are made on the main lines (large details), and then small ones. The result should be patterned "lines" consisting of dots;
- After the pattern is completed, the product must be dried naturally for 24 hours. If desired, the finished painted plate can be varnished.
Both ceramics and glass are well suited for such painting. You can pre-paint the plate with paints, make a background or draw a plot picture, and then further process the lines with contour paints, highlighting the necessary details.
It is more convenient to fix the pattern on a glass plate with adhesive tape on the outside or inside, depending on the purpose of the dish.
If the plate is going to be used as a decoration, then the paint application side does not matter. To use the plate for its intended purpose, it is better to apply paint from the outside and fix the picture from the inside.
Wooden plates are also painted with acrylic and then varnished. As a rule, they do not eat from such dishes, so they can be an excellent wall decoration, and can also be used for fruits (painted wooden dishes).
Perhaps many people associate wooden utensils- plates and spoons - with folk painting, for example, Khokhloma or Gorodets. Mastering folk painting is not difficult. The main thing is to understand the basic principle of each painting, its "zest".
