i rescue plates

yes, i do. i rescue plates and collage them with my artwork. i started rescuing plates a few years ago but only recently decided to list them in my etsy shop. maybe it's the fear of mailing fragile things...anyways  some of this batch is slowly making it's way to the shop.

    Oh goodness, I am in love! They are beautiful.

    I just recently decided I need to start an art plate collection. When I get some spare $ I am going to need one of these!

    Yay ♥

    Love them!
    The contrast between the plate decoration and your artwork is lovingly surprising :)

    Absolutely amazing artwork, loving the bear! How did you create these, did you paint your illustrations onto the plate itself? I must blog your awesomeness :)

    These are seriously WONDERFUL!

    I am SO curious how this is done, as I am an illustrator myself, and have always wanted to learn to do this!

    Any tips?
