Planning ahead where flowers and forms are to drape or rise keeps my vision ever present. In this initial stage, being aware of the application of lights and darks allows the flowers and forms to later manifest in full vibrancy.

Painting in underglazes requires repetition of the glaze application. Many people don't realize the time and deliberateness needed to create the brilliance I so enjoy in my floral designs. The glazes are mixed carefully to get the color needed for highlights and line details.

With an extensive palette I find it easy to create colors that work for any desired environment.

Working for hours with a fine brush brings definition to the floral forms.

One of the greatest fulfullments in this project was the attention I could give to detail. Once fired the glaze comes alive and on close inspection every brushstroke can be seen. This is the truest reward for my efforts.
