Goodness, that is small but a lovely piece! Such a delicate piece with such detail..what on earth did you use to paint on the underglazes?

I use very fine watercolor brushes. I have an artist friend who refers to them as "brain surgery brushes" :-)

I love it. Is that a holder made specifically to hold a penny to show size?

No, it' just a little piece of foil that had been wrapped around a piece of chocolate. Of course, I had to eat the chocolate then.

Let me get this right. You sculpted him out of clay and then after painting the colors, fired with glaze? All from scratch? OPK
