Description
Done at our local "Crackpots" while I was just trying to have fun with my son, and he did a cute little pumpkin candle holder. I just recently realized I never did get a picture of this, so I thought I should.So it's color glazes under a clear coat glaze to keep it food safe, and I liked how the gray for the far branches actually worked quite well. And mixing the glazes on my brush worked as well as I hoped it would for the flowers. And I'm comfortable enough with cherry blossoms now that it's fun to just improvise with them. The sparrows were fun. I like sparrows.
It's a sandwich plate. We use it nearly every day. It's fun to use and see each time.

VERY pretty! Yanno painting china used to be quite a popular home craft in my grandmother's day. I have several tea cups hand painted by her and my great aunt.

OOooo... neat. I hadn't known that, but it's certainly an easy way to enjoy it on a more practical basis. *grins*
Thank you, very much!
Oh! And I had to tell you that for some reason or another, on fanfiction.net, a whole BUNCH of people are suddenly making "Finishing Arguments" one of their favorites! I wonder if it's just because Ulquiorra's in the latest chapters or something? But for whatever reason, people are really liking the story I wrote you. *grins*
Just thought it was a cool thing.

oh ya that would be why though I expect an Ulqui/Ishi fic would get even more faves just now XD

Oh did you glaze that yourself? It's lovely! You should do a small setting for yourself and your family!

Indeed! Thank you!
Ooo... I hadn't thought of that, yet; but that would be fun. *grins* Though the iris bowl made me think about some bearded iris pieces, too.

Your style is very well suited for painting on pottery. I'd have to change my style quite a bit.

*grins* And I have a lot, lot of work to do before I can do people, at all.
It is interesting how suited different styles are to different applications and different results.
Thank you! I am glad that you like the bitty birds... they're fun.

Argh! One of my cats brought in a baby sparrow as a gift this morning. Bad bad bad...

Awww... that's very cat-like of them, though. Hunters they are, and like giving gifts to those they love.
Poor baby sparrow... it's interesting to know that baby sparrows have already hatched!

Yep, they can't really help it, but I hate it when they bring "presents"...
Not only that, two of the boys had a yaoi moment today. I was just not ready for it.

Wow. I would not be ready for that, at all...
