I made two plates for Christmas gifts this year, both portraits of deceased pets: our little rabbit for my mother and our neighbour's cat for our neighbour. Here are some pictures:
wow, this is really nice!! congrats!! Can I ask what type of paint you used? (because I tried to paint some ceramic plates last year with pebeo porcelain paint and it was awfully thick and sticky -though brand new-). Thanks in advance for your reply
That's funny, because I use pebeo porcelaine too... I don't know, maybe there was something wrong with that particular pen? Sometimes you get a tricky one. Some of mine like to clog up and are hell to unclog.
I've also noticed that the paint can be susceptible to atmospheric pressure. I had some problems with the pens in Santa Fe, which is at a high altitude. The thin air made the paint really thin and runny. So maybe the air pressure was unusually high the time you tried using your pen? Just an idea.
Why must this be so adorable?

I hope that was at least a little helpful!
