Plates with patterns and pictures

 

Plates designed for a recent competition! This provided the happy motivation for reviving my interest in plate artwork - like these designs last year, now I'm exploring turning these plates into reality. I'm pleased with the fancy cuff made of fruit segments.


Designing plate rim patterns is a satisfying exercise, and lets face it this edging is more important than the central design when it's hidden under your dinner. All edgings and designs are hand drawn, scanned in and digitally coloured.
