Small Paintings with Frame







Comercial tiles from the do it yourself store,which I cut into smaller tiles, are a good source for small ceramic (slip)paintings. After the cutting, a drawing with pen and inkt and slip painting follows.The frame and cloisonné of the tile, is done with the slipapplicator.Rob

Handshaking with a Cloud Figure




Sometimes there are very remarkable cloud figures in the sky,and I wonder what they have to tell.One of my clay figurine had the opportunity to shake hands with a cloud(the upper left tile).


I make the small pieces with a slip applicator.It is a very easy way to make figures on a piece of plaster.Once dry the plaster loose the figures and they can transfered to a tile or vase.With a brush and slip it is also possible to paint on plaster.
