I don't know how to make ceramics myself, but I really like painting them at the ceramics shop!

Here is my latest:

That is pretty. I'd have a hard time waiting the week too!

That looks really nice. I'm just wondering if you would be able to give us a close up picture of the painting job that you did. I'm old, and can't see the pattern very well.

That looks very elegant! I LOVE painting ceramics. It's really annoying we'll get a shoppe that does it and then they go under. We can't seem to keep one.. I love when they're around though. I've done dessert dishes, napkin holders, tea cups. It's a lot of fun.
My mom was actually making gift baskets and throwing in some ceramic that she painted for a while and selling them.

I too am with Kenbo though and would like to see a couple more angles and close up of your design!

Wow, that is really pretty. I can't imagine painting that on a plate. You must have hands as steady as a surgeon. Thank you for posting the close up pictures. Angela mentioned to me that you have other pics on your blog as well. I just may have to check them out. Great work.

Don't sell yourself short, even done with a stencil, this is very nice work and I'm sure that it takes quite a bit of skill and a fairly steady hand to complete. The fact that it is not a flat surface would make it difficult for me. Stencil or no stencil, I'm impressed.
