Kim K Red flower prints 007

Good job. It looks really nice. 

Lady: TY for the progression in pictures: nice to see a conceptual piece from start to finish. Very nice work.. well done.

Looks pretty amazing to me. 

So it's like painting behind glass - you lay in the highlights first and work "backwards"? Still leaves room for improv. I like this very much. 

Alice, this is lovely!!  I like Trumpet vines also!!  Did you take the photo and trace the image first??  And are you using newsprint to put the underglaze on?

the photo came from a website with pictures of flowers.  i traced it on tracing paper held to the screen on my computer.  then painted it on cheap newsprint using a lightbox.  kim says the cheap stuff works fine.  i got mine at the dollar tree.  i have to confess that i still have not worked out how to use this technique.  thinking of putting color on slabs, putting the slab on a bat, lifting the edges to make a plate.  maybe????

be sure to check out her website.  gorgeous things!
