Bleeding Hearts Sgraffito demoIn 2021, I created a new pattern - Bleeding Hearts. One of my favorite flowers as we have many growing all around our back yard. Spring is my favorite time of year as the shoots and leaves of this amazing plant are sprouting forth from the ground.
The Bleeding Heart pattern is definitely my most complicated to date. It consists of a different approach to applying my colored slip. A more painterly technique, I brush on layers of the different colors in specific areas on the piece before I do the carving. Once carved, I then paint on additional highlights of color to define the flower's details and ad a little more depth. Video Above. Virtual Studio TourIf you have not visited me at my home studio, and are curious about how and where I work, I created this virtual tour of my studio that includes some demonstrations of how I make my work. Thanks for watching! Approximately 17 minutes long.
