    New Plate Design (work in progress)

    I'm working on painting another plate. This time with a planned design so the paint won't show through the design. I'm really happy with it so far. The circles were made with a quarter, an Excedrine bottle and my coffee cup. I really like it so much better than the last one. I'm also going to use a very thin paintbrush to paint in the black lines.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Wow, thats really pretty, I love the color choices. I would love to see it again once its finished.
    I have been messing around with clay/pottery for awhile now in Studio Arts. Its really fun to let your imagination go whichever way it wants when choosing designs and colors.

    Val, this is SO great!

    You posted in another thread about not being able to keep everything you make. How about finding out when a local pet rescue is having a sale or event to raise funds? You could use your 'extra' plates, and give a percentage to the rescue!

    Might want to hit the dollar stores for wall plate hangers. I can't see these being used for food - they are just TOO gorgeous! They would brighten up any room they were in.

    Hmmm....gift swap coming up...hmmm...... Burgundy, forest green, off-white! (I just typo'd "White" with an "s"....lol)
