Workshop:
This one-day workshop will be an
introduction to various styles of
china painting, with an emphasis
on Ilona's own china painting methods
that she has created and developed
in her 18 years of working with porcelain.
Ilona will begin by sharing images
of her own and others work. Ilona
will demonstrate ways to prepare
and mix colors, transfer designs
onto the clay, as well as other techniques
of china paint application using
a brush, pen, sponge, scratching
and fingertip processes.
In the afternoon
each student will have the chance
to experiment with the demonstrated
china painting techniques. Ilona
will work with students on their
own designs. |
