The Fine Art of China Painting

Porcelain painting, not to be confused with ceramics, is a fine art that has been around for thousands of years. Painting on porcelain pieces of white or ivory color with powered paints that are mixed with mineral oil to the consistancy of tooth paste are applied one layer at a time after each firing in a kiln.
China painting is the sister to watercolors - starting with your lightest to darkest. If you are interested in learning this ancient dying art contact us at wetpaintstudiosofwalden@ gmail.com. We would love to share our knowledge and fellowship with any one interested in this fine art.

Big Thicket Celebrates the Season

Big Thicket held their annual Christmas luncheon and auction  December 5.  As president of Big Thicket, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the Big Thicket members for  their hard work and time spent before, up to, and during the luncheon.  Many months were put into painting items for the sale table, auction, door prizes and mug exchange.  Not to mention all the work  setting up and taking down of decorations.  Thanks once again Helen and husband Ken Turner for setting up sale table, bookkeeping, sales, and helping with anything else when asked.  Thanks a million Marilyn for taking charge and presiding over the luncheon for me. Jan, thanks ever so much for doing the door prizes and auction.  Lois and Carol, we couldn't have had the mug exchange and visitors numbers without you.  I hope each and every one of you 
enjoyed the day, A lot of hard work and love went into it just for you!
