Full colour pictures reduced down to 2 colours, result in stark and stunning artwork. Each one is an orginal as no 2 can be made exactly the same. Some are customised with Swarovski Crystals, such as Monroe, Hendrix and Hepburn whilst Jim Morrison features a 9ct gold chain. They are all kiln fired up to 4 times and have a strong invisible hanger on the back. If you don't see who you'd like and want your icon celebrated in this style, please email or ring me as most images can be transformed from full colour pictures. Larger tiles are available on request.   Fusion: A range of designs on a variety of china, incorporating fused dichroic glass. Dichroic glass has become hugely popular in jewellery making due to it's vibrant colours and shimmering lustre. When fused onto china and set in platinum or gold relief work, the effects and textures are stunning. Popular within the fusion range are trinket pots of various shapes and sizes, vases, abstract tiles and even coffee pots.   Teapots: Teapots and coffee pots in all shapes and sizes designed and handpainted to match your decor or stand out from the crowd. If you fancy a small pot with daisies or a big pot with butterflies... dots and spots or cows and sheep.... whatever you have in your mind... if you like teapots let me know and I can paint you one!   Whimsical Weddings: Within this range are eclectic designs of fantasy fun through to subtle and beautiful simplicity. I can design a whole range of unique gifts for the mothers of bride and groom as well as bridesmaids and pageboys.   Smile on a Tile: Witty words or poetry handpainted onto ceramic tiles with an invisible hanger on the back. Standard size is 6" x 6" although any size is available on request. A smile on a tile can be sent as a ceramic greeting card, with your own words. They make ideal Christening plaques to hang in the baby's room. As with all my work, you can choose the design and wording for a unique gift. Smiles are also available on china fridge magnets, coasters and mugs. I can email you a list of my most popular witty words if you need some inspiration!   Children's China :I do a lot of commissions for babies and children because it is a timeless gift that will become a family heirloom and it's always special to have the child's name and personal details on the china. Here are some samples of the most popular pieces I've painted. If you don't see the perfect present, please get in touch we can have a chat about a unique design for you, with no obligation.
