Experimentation:n Permanent Ultraviolet Marker

I found an ultraviolet permanent marker when tidying my bed room and decided to try it on the glasses just to see it if behaved differently to the other pens. Truth be told, I wasn't expecting much and as such I was pleasantly surprised that the permanent marker actually worked. The ink from it sticks to the glass once dried and doesn't smudge when touched which is exactly what I wanted. I don't have to use a primer of any sort so it works out cheaper and gives the exact effect I want.


I'm going to try it on plain glazed plates too as it again would be more effective without a primer and wouldn't give the textures it currently does. This discovery has renewed my enthusiasm for this project and once again, I'm excited to continue it.
