The genesis of a new design… challenged by a friend for a private commision, I was asked to place a favourite painting – my bright peacock – on a serving platter as a special 40th birthday present. Tricksy… I’ve never made transfer ware before but the result is eye-catching, especially when teamed with hand painted and sgraffitoed edgings. Think I’ll be making more of these little numbers!

Thank you for the follow Bee, I’m following you by return. Where/how did you get your transfers made?
Hi Juliet, really like your work 🙂 and thanks for following back. I get my transfers from digitalceramics.com – their colour quality is really good and they’re pretty helpful too.
