Preview of some new tiles for 2011

I've been working on some china painting while the last of the Lakeshore SR is cooking in the kiln. I've been experimenting with different china paint techniques and different glazes. I really love crackle glazes and they seem to work fine with the china paints. I'm also going back to doing some free-hand drawing with unglazing chalks, pencils, and watercolors.

Once these tiles are complete I will be listing them to my Etsy shop. I'll also be listing some mixed media PMC (precious metal clay) pieces soon.
