More n more Portmeirion pottery designs..

This project... a signage is almost done... just waiting for my hands to get steady to put in the letterings "Beautiful Pottery". Lately I've been having pains in the arms and shoulders ... I don't even sit down long hours anymore to complete anything ... every project is done on a touch n go basis ... taking long breaks between sessions *sigh*... guess I've forgotten, I'm not as young and agile as I used to be ....

Anyway, this is a signage for Mimi's display apartment for her collection of Portmerion and other exclusive pottery for sale. I've adapted this design from a wall paper I found at a friend's house. Had always wanted to have it painted for myself... but errrrr... that was just a thought hehe. Anyway... glad I had the chance to paint it... though it's not for me :(

Check it out ya... will post the completed version later when I'm done ... cheerio

The Avian House ...


This was a design I adapted from Chris Hobel's painting on a utensil holder. Figurines of any form is not my favourite subject... but I do occasionally make an attempt to do something different. The rooster and the hen is a miserable attempt on my part here... but hey... this is art ;))) ... not too pleased with the effort though hehe. Yup... yup... yup...

err... Noorazma do I need to redo this?

*sigh*


Here's a failed attempt at Scott's Roses painted on a stool haha... a classic example of "don't-paint-if-you-are-not-in-the-right-mood". It was a request by a customer for Scott's Roses ... but the outcome is nothing like Scott's *sigh* ... oh well if she doesn't like it, the stool is mine ... one of the reasons why I don't take deposits ... if the painting is unsatisfactory, then the customer need not take it ... anyway... she has not seen it yet... she may or may not want it hahaha ....oh wellll ....
