Porcelain painting

Refining white porcelain by decorating it with artistic paintings is one of the main fields of my work. Inspired by the blaze of colours and the manifoldness in nature, I enjoy painting individual objects but also whole crockery sets, with patience, a steady hand and fine brushstrokes.

Some examples of my work:

Depending on size, type and purpose I paint the porcelain with:

  • Animal, hunting and bird motifs
  • Rural scenery and miniatures
  • Plants and flowers
  • Fruit
  • Armorial bearings
  • or extraordinary motifs on customers' request

As a finishing touch I like to add preparations in gold and silver and perform figure staffage on the painted porcelain.

Furthermore I replace missing pieces in incomplete crockery and touch up discoloured gold coating.
