This week I went to a pottery cafe for the first time to paint colourful decorative sheep on containers for my kitchen. As it was my first visit, I wasn’t sure how detailed I could be with the paints or how easy it would be to come up with some designs so I made some really simple preparatory scribbles at home first to get an idea of what I might want to paint.
I didn’t use any of these as the final design, but hope what I did do looks ok when I go and collect it because the paints didn’t look anything like how they will finally look after glazing so it was all guesswork. Although it was really good fun, I’m getting quite nervous about what I’ll get back!
