My dishwasher is always full of bowls.
It's the one item in my kitchen I never have enough of.
I paint them fancy and I paint them plain.
I paint the inside.
And I paint the outside.
I paint them bold.
And I paint them colorful.
I paint them sweet and simple.
Even just in blue and white.
I can paint them so you can show off your family crest.
No matter how many bowls I paint I end up with only rejects in my house.
Have a wonderful week my dear
Blogging Friends.

Gina, these are all so beautiful! I love them all. My husband would love some bowls with the family crest on them. :D
ReplyDeleteDear Ricki Jill, I would love to paint a few bowls with your family crest. You can contact me here:
ReplyDeletegarn at cut dot net, or leave a comment here or leave a message in my Etsy shop.
Well Gina, if you end up with only rejects, you are clearly a perfectionist! They're all stunning!
ReplyDeleteVery talented painter of bowls! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteOh my, I would take one of your rejects in a heartbeat, and I would love to fill my dishwasher with such glorious beauty. I have plain and simple large green square plates and no colour at all. The colours for me are found in the fun mugs that I choose...
ReplyDeleteDear Gina,
ReplyDeleteThese magnificent designs that you paint are just driving me crazy. How I wish I could have some here for my table.. they are so so different.
You have such great vision with your designs. I love them.
Thanks so much for sharing these photos.. lovely post.
happy days

Dear Mark, The first picture shows my rejects. They're good enough for me and they remind me of ideas I tried and even though they didn't turn out quite right...they may the next time around.
ReplyDeleteHello Ellen, Thank you for your visit and thank you for your very nice compliment. Have a great week and plaese, come visit me again.
ReplyDeleteDear Mary, I sold all of my bowls at the last sale. Soon, I'll be posting new designs on Etsy. They're very affordable and they can even be personalized. Dark green is a great color to begin your collection. And colorful mugs are always fun.
ReplyDeleteDear Val, Now I know that you paint ceramics. I have seen them and they are beautiful. Painting bowls is so easy, some of them only take about 10 minutes to paint. I should check into the cost of shipping to Portugal. There may be a way... ox, Gina
ReplyDeleteI also love bowls, especially Italian ones, yours are stunning.
ReplyDeleteHi LindyLou, Have you been collecting Italian ceramics? Would love to see them. I remember seeing beautiful antique ceramics at the Arezzo flea market.
ReplyDeleteI always grab a bowl to eat from! I love these and know your next creations will be worth waiting for.
ReplyDeleteDear Theresa, I love eating out of bowls, keeps everything warm much longer and bowls are also great for leftovers. Thank you for your sweet comment. It is always great to hear from you. ox, Gina
ReplyDeleteDo you work on greenware with underglazes? The crisp lines that you achieve give me that impression. So much inspiration here. I need to get busy with my slab roller and fire up my kiln. It's been a long time. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteMe again....count me as your newest follower. Cherry Kay
ReplyDeleteHi Cherry Kay, Welcome and thank you for becoming my newest Follower. To answer your question, I paint on once fired bisqueware. And yes I paint with underglazes, a mixture I prepare with Italian powder pigments that I bring back from Italy every year.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bowls, I would never tire of looking at them. Each must be very special.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful. Thanks for sharing your talent. ~CJ
ReplyDeleteDear Judy, Because they are hand painted that is why they have the look of being special. So few things are available that are hand made. They are not difficult to paint. Thank you for your visit.
ReplyDeleteHello CJ and welcome to my blog. So nice to see you here. I'm so glad that you like my bowls.
ReplyDeleteYou have a talent that I admire with every fiber of my being! I'm thinking I would love to have a platter or something like that with my husband's family crest and that of my family. Hmmmmm....I need to think about this. That would look so cool in our library! I will inbox you. I love these bowls. They're each so unique. My favorite of those pictured is the one with what looks like Marie Antoinette on it!
ReplyDeleteDear Alycia, Yes, your family crests on plates in your library would look pretty special. The Marie Antoinette shallow bowl is also one of my favorites. It was sold to a fancy shop in one of our famous tourist towns.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome to contact me anytime through my Etsy shop or email: garn at cut dot net.
What a wonderful talent to have. These are just beautiful and I love when a bowl has decoration inside and out. I will have to check out your Etsy shop!

Your artistry is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteDear Robin, I need to add a few new bowls to my Etsy shop. All were sold a few weeks ago at our special celebration in town. Thank you for your visit.
ReplyDeleteHello Susan and Bentley, I'm so happy that you like my bowls and thank you for commenting and thank you for your visit.
ReplyDeleteHow nice of you to be so generous with your praise Jojo. It is so appreciated and thank you also for your visit.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work, Gina! Lovely!
