12" Classic Porcelain Vase with 24k Gold Painted Forest Animals

This large commanding vase I glazed in a sugary, crystalline matte shimmering glaze. I then painted with the finest brushes, onto of the fired surface with 24Kt gold, the animals of the forest in spring. The scrolling leaf patterns behind them stirring with life. Then the piece is fired for the 3rd time. It reminds me of the early Indian or Persian minature painting, which I hold as inspiration in my mind. The quality of the gold as it sits on the sugary surface is sublime. -MT
