Opal effect flowers

I really LOVE how they turn out! In my attempt to make clay flowers with opal effect, I created them.  They may not be exactly like opal, but I am totally satisfied with the result of mixing three ingredients.

hand-painted Alice on tote bag

I finished painting Alice on this tote bag together with a sack today.  The characters were painted with champagne gold acrylic paint accentuated with true gold acrylic paint.  Which one (see another post) do you like better?

I finished this painting Alice, my favorite cartoon character, on this sack and a tote bag.  The alphabets were painted with pearlescent puffy fabric paint.

Ethereal narcissus

I was once asked why I painted this narcissus so light. Well, because it was made of cold porcelain instead of the traditional resin clay. It is supposed to look like porcelain. And pastel shades go much nicer with the texture of cold porcelain. If I had painted it darker, it would have looked like plastic. Now it has a translucency. Secondly, strong colors tend stay on the surface of cold porcelain. And, once again, it would make the whole product look plastic and unreal. Now it looks more ethereal. Don't you think so?

Handbag-shaped gift box

I designed this handbag-shaped gift box a couple of years ago.  And today I made a new one for a wedding gift.
