Creative Applications
Big Mouth Paints are as versatile as your imagination. Their thinner consistency allows for endless possibilities — whether you want fluid, abstract designs or detailed brushwork.
Here are a few of our favorite ways to use them:
- 🎨 Paint Pouring: Create stunning marbled and layered effects with no fear of chemical reactions between colors.
- 🖌️ Traditional Painting: Use a brush or popsicle stick to apply smooth, even coats.
- 🌈 Stippling & Texturing: Add depth and dimension by layering paint dots or textured strokes.
Pro tip: Big Mouth Paints can be clear capped for added dimension or sealed between glass layers for a softer, muted effect. For the boldest, brightest results, apply paint on the top surface and fire to a full fuse.
Firing Tips for Glossy Perfection
To get that signature Big Mouth shine, fire at 1475°F–1515°F and hold for 10 minutes. This firing range ensures your paint fuses fully, creating a smooth, durable, and glossy surface.
If you prefer a softer look, lower the temperature slightly or sandwich your design between glass layers for a more diffused appearance.
Why Big Mouth Paints Are a Studio Favorite
Artists love Big Mouth Paints because they take the guesswork out of glass painting. There’s no need for additional mediums, they mix cleanly, and the colors stay true even at full fuse temperatures. Plus, their wide-mouth jars make them incredibly easy to use — no squeezing, shaking, or waste.
