the wonders of U-Paint

well it would seem i have a new addiction!

For Mine and Davids anniversary he took me to a place that so reminded me of my childhood... A place where magic reigns and woman and men, children and adults could sit together in harmony, combined with their love of painting pre cast ceramics! sigh* it was awesome, for my first piece i chose a large stein which depicted a snow top ski scene, a large beer tankard some may call it. We sat together on this day, our eight month anniversary and painted our little woodland scene together, surrounded by the chatter of the other women in the little store in the middle of eagle hawk. U-Paint.

that was last Monday, today we went to pick up our fired piece, dreading and hoping our piece of art would be the beauty we envisioned. we ended up selecting a few more pieces and then spent the good part of the afternoon immersed in our own creative worlds, David painting a cat with all the glaze colours of the rainbow, and me painstakingly drawing and concentrating on getting a beautiful damask image i had drawn a few weeks ago reproduced on my porcelain. we also picked up our crafted-in-love stein. viola!
u paint
im so proud!
