Finally Finished.

I am so pleased to report that my Fairy Lustre piece is now finished. For those of you who are not familiar with Fairy Lustreware or missed the link on a previous post click here to see  where the inspiration came from.

I Believe


I used Lumiere paints for the background and her wings and they do shimmer but you can't see it in the photo.


I used acrylic,oil pastel, charcoal pencil, mixed  foliage stamps and permanent ink in black and gold.

The finished painting is lying on my desk and has been, in various stages of progression, for a little while now so I hope this post qualifies for WOYWW even though my desk isn't actually pictured here.

Thank you for visiting. x

    I adore fairylustre ware, only wish I was rich enough to own some!! I saw some recently on a visit to Liverpool's word museum. They had several pieces and I was entranced by all that shimmery gold. I love your piece too it is so pretty!. I always have lots of metallic sparkle in my work but it never photographs wel.l

    Oh Fuzzie, that's gorgeous... I wish I could see the lustre of the lumieres. I haven't had any experience with these paints. Are they anything like Perfect Pearls or Twinkling H2O's? How is your thumb these days? I do hope it's better. I can't imagine the frustration of not being able to paint and be creative for so long.

    Thanks for your nice comment - I am looking forward to ironing the roofing felt to see how it behaves. Having a rest day today as not feeling too good. My poor desk is suffering from neglectitis.

    Happy WOYWW,

    She's quite lovely! I know and love the lumbered paints, so am in no doubt about the beautiful shimmer too. well done..never mind the satisfaction of finishing something that's been about for a while, the satisfaction of such a great finish...you must be allowably smug!
