small things


In january we bought a house(a small school build in 1912) in Friesland.
For now we are rebuilding the house, so I have little time to work in my studio. 
Only the small things....

Yesterday I decided to make a new mold of drawing pins. You can see the result here. 






















This result is cast in porcelain.

moldmaking

These little candies together seem to me a beautiful composition of a porcelain brooch. 
I have decided to make a mold for today.I have no idea if this will work out, but it's fun to do.

story

I found this picture on www.adrawingaweek.blogspot.com
it reminds me of my own work in porcelain



Porcelain brooches made of two layers of porcelain with a transfer of Delftware blue and golden luster. 16 pieces form a entity.
Together they form one object. You can give each friend or familymember one piece and together you will form a whole.
I also make entities with 4 or 9 pieces.
Each brooch has a silver pin on the backside.
