Porcelain coffee mug with teeth pattern

đŸš« SOLD đŸš«

I made a thing!

 


I bought a white porcelain "take away" style coffee mug a while ago with the intention of drawing something on it. I didn't want to put text on it, but I could not settle for a motif for a long time.
Then I decided on teeth, after seeing an old medical illustration.

I was going to add red around the roots of the teeth dripping down like blood, but in the morning after I had left it to dry overnight, the simple black design had grown on me.

I like it a lot, I think the touch of red had been too much. I tend to overwork my art and then I end up disliking it, so it is something I have to be mindful of.

It sold only a few hours after I had put it up for sale, to a man in the US! I hope he will like it :)

Recension / Review : Blommor och bÀr mandalas / Flowers and Berries Mandalas / Mandalas Blomster Og BÊr




Recension: Blommor och bÀr mandalas, MÄlarbok

(For english, please scroll down!)

Illustrator: "Moif" moif@mail.dk
Förlag: Unicorn
Sidor: 32 st
Utgiven: 2012-2014 dansk utgÄva, 2014 svensk utgÄva
Pris: n/a
EAN: 978-87-92484-99-4

Jag fick denna bok, sÄ dÀrför har den tyvÀrr inget pris i listan. Men den finns pÄ Lapland Eco Store för 79kr: https://www.laplandecostore.se/sv/articles/2.477.10526/unicorn-mandalas-blommor-bar (ej sponsrad)


Boken har totalt 32 sidor. Motiven som man ska mÄla Àr bara tryckta pÄ en sida, vilket betyder att man inte behöver oroa sig för att ens pennor ska blöda igenom pappret och missfÀrga motivet bakom.

Det FSC-certifierade pappret Àr tryckt med vegetabiliska fÀrger i Danmark pÄ 200 g papper och sidorna Àr sÄdeles tjockare Àn i de flesta mÄlarböcker jag har stött pÄ. Det gör att man till och med kan mÄla med vattenfÀrger / akvarell. Det jag har upplevt Àr att man ÀndÄ fÄr vara lite sparsam med vattnet och inte lÀgga pÄ för mycket, men pappret Àr relativt tÄligt mot vatten.

Bokens storlek (ca 24 cm lÄng och ca 21,5 cm bred) gör att motiven Àr stora och klara vilket ger mycket yta att mÄla bÄde för smÄ och stora konstnÀrer. Dessutom sÄ Àr sidorna lÀtta att dra ut sÄ man kan hÀnga dem pÄ vÀggen eller rama in dem - Ànnu en fördel att det bara Àr ett motiv per sida!

Fördelar:
+ Ett motiv per sida
+ Tjockare papper Àn de flesta mÄlarböcker
+ Fina naturmotiv

Nackdelar:
- Även om man kan anvĂ€nda vattenfĂ€rger sĂ„ mĂ„ste man vara aktsam med att anvĂ€nda för mycket vatten pĂ„ ett och samma stĂ€lle

Slutresultat:
Det finns sÄ mycket positivt och sÄ lite negativt med denna bok att jag rekommenderar den till alla som gillar att mÄla (oavsett varför man gör det)!

Review: Blommor och bÀr mandalas, colouringbook

Illustrator: "Moif" moif@mail.dk
Publisher: Unicorn
Pages: 32 pcs
Published: 2012-2014 Danish edition, 2014 Swedish edition
Price: n/a
EAN: 978-87-92484-99-4

I did not buy this book so that is why I do not list a buy price. It is available at Lapland Eco Store for 79 sek: https://www.laplandecostore.se/sv/articles/2.477.10526/unicorn-mandalas-blommor-bar (not sponsored)

The book has a total of 32 pages. Each illustration is printed on its own page in the book so you don't have to worry about colours bleeding through and discolouring what is underneath. Neat!

The FSC-certified paper is printed with vegetable ink in Denmark on 200 g paper, and so the pages are thicker than most colouring-books with mandala-type motifs I have encountered. This makes it possible to use watercolours in the book. What I have experienced is that you still have to be a little economical with the water and not use too much, but the paper is relatively resistant to water-treatment.

The size of the book (about 24 cm long and about 21,5 cm wide) makes the illustrations big and clear. This also gives a generous amount of space for both small and big painters to creatively use. Additionally, the pages are easy to tear out so they can be hung up on the wall or framed - another advantage with it only being one motif per page!

Pros:
+ One illustration per page
+ Thicker paper than most colouring-books
+ Lovely nature motifs

Cons:
- Even if you can use watercolours you have to be somewhat careful with how much water you use in one spot

Conclusion:
There is so much positive and so little negative with this book I have no reservations with recommending it to anyone that enjoys painting (no matter the reason why you do it)!
