Pottery Plate, In Progress

[dukedogsmom]

At my pottery place, you can now put photos on plates. What you do is paint the plate white where the photo will be and then paint the rest of the plate how you want. It's then fired. Then, the photo is copied onto special transparent paper, put on the plate and fired again. The photos turn a sepia color. The first pic gives you an idea of what the finished plate will look like. The second one is the painting part finished. I've always loved that one of Duke. I painted his name in brown and heart in red. That will be the only color in the photo. I think it's going to turn out nice. I'm going to hang it on the wall.
