As we didn't want to miss anything when firing each color of enamel, the recorded results presented in students' sketch book, firing temperature mainly was from 600℃ to 950℃, since this process showed us how enamel melting in kiln, which had rewarded us with very fun experiences.

Like a blank sheet of paper, we keep trying and trying…with two kind of colors at different firing temperatures. Everyone is encouraged to challenge the limitation, to get more results from only simple two colors. In this process, we acquired proper effects through succeed and failed experiments.

Cheng Qin
Then we moved to fire mixed colors for once, twice, or three times, it was becoming more complex with firing temperatures and results. This training required the sensibility of color and knowledge of our previous experiments.

Cheng Qin
We investigated the color, firing temperature...from simple to complex, there might be a hundred times failed with our broken hearts...but, the pain was quickly forgotten when we woke up the next morning. We have this ability. :)
For more process, it is to be continued.
