How to Enamel: Experimenting with Blue over Yellow and Apricot

This is an experiment to see if we can get warmer blues by using pale yellow and apricot as a base. Pale yellow has a greenish tinge and apricot has a very orange tinge...marigold or a golden yellow enamel would also be options for anyone wanting to experiment with this themselves. You could also try experimenting with how transparent blues might work over opaque yellows. I always try to get my students to do loads of experimentation - it is worth it for loads of reasons, the main reason being cost. If you make a mess of a piece of metal (especially precious metals) because you didn't experiment on offcuts, it is a waste of money...as well as a frustrating waste of time. So, get a nice cup of tea or coffee and settle down to do some enamelling samples - and make sure to take notes. I can guarantee you'll forget what you did within minutes otherwise!
