I saw a picture in a magazine that inspired me to paint the cat on this 3" dish. The colours used are Meissen Red, rich brown and black, tan and a lighter yellow, and with the Meissen around the rim. Cute eh?
I don't know if you can see in this picture, but I added a little bit of texture paste around the centres of all the flowerettes which sit on the top of each hydrangea head.
These blue hydrangeas are painted on a 12" bone china plate. It was a joy to paint and I loved adding the little bits of pink to enhance the flowers and leaves. I like the uneven-ness but balance of the blue rim!
I have been painting porcelain for 20 years and been involved as a teacher for much of that time.
I am going to endeavour to post new things at least every 2 weeks on my blog - so stay tuned! I have all sorts of interesting things I want to share with you.
Cheers
