Cute Cat !

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?

Close up of the art work below!

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.

Blue Hydrangeas


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!


The design was adapted from a Grace Moss study.
