PAINTING PORCELAIN


Merfrog & Sea Hag
glazed porcelain, china painted, french porcelain paints
these two I was testing glazes
the Merfae mold worked perfect


china painting fashion mold dolls
trying to lighten up, but still keeping my painting style
this mold also worked very well


while waiting for the kiln to fire
worked on a couture Chanel style jacket


I love these dolls they pose perfectly


firing the china paint on my fashion dolls


my new kiln is working out great
no buyer's remorse


my Deerfly all strung
this mold also worked very well
she is small and moves beautifully


Deerfly & French deer


just used a tiny bit of French porcelain paints
love the water color effect


Deerfly with hairs
she will be in my shop this week


Until them she is perched up high with 
the Orange blossom twins

PORCELAIN AND MORE PORCELAIN

Cinnamon deer

so much porcelain lately I killed my little firefly kiln
although I had been looking to upgrade to a larger machine
now I was pushed into it
my first fire from my shiny new kiln which will fit 6 dolls
 as before I could only do two

Sea hag 


testing out glazes had a few bad experiments
but now it seems to be happening
underglazing also worked out


bathtime and a good scrub
drying fashion dolls


now I've tested all my new molds I made last year
very pleased with the outcome
I feel I have come a long way
in creating a porcelain doll
style that is truly
