My mother in love was a china painter.
She painted china for over 30 years. She would paint white china and fire them in a kiln. Here's a sampling of her art.
And these are some pieces that she has blessed me with through the years .
I love the old fashioned roses on this Lemonade pitcher.
It is a little hard to see, but the spout of the pitcher is tilted for pouring.
My favorite - a Coffee and Tea service....
My mother in love passed away a year and half ago. Even though her hands were wracked with arthritis, she still enjoyed putting a little paint on china when she could.
Thank you for letting me share these beautiful pieces with you. Enjoy your day :-)
