Interesting Things About Pottery Painting

By Mark Bell


Designing a pot is exciting and challenging. It does not require an expert skill to accomplish this activity. It will only take your time and effort. Having a creative imagination will help you plan for your theme and painting ideas. Here are some simple tips for creative pottery painting IL.

My neighbor, Ellen, is a single mother. Every time her children are in school, she does not have anything to do during the entire day. So, she keeps herself busy by creating recyclable materials into house decors and furniture. Her level of creativity astonishes her visitors during several occasions.

One day, she decided to grow a garden in her backyard so that she would have something to do every morning. She brought my cousin with her to buy some plain pots and as expected, she wants to decorate them. However, she has no idea about the right designs. She could order her kids to paint random stuff on them but it would just mess up her work.

She learned that, that to avoid being monotonous, color green should be the last option. Green or any shades of green suggests sameness and monotony of the colors unless you want the pot to appear like it is part of your plant leaves. If your flowers are colorful enough to outshine the dullness of the pot, then neutral colors would be fine.

My cousin told her, that to avoid monotony, it is not advisable to paint the pot green or any shades of green unless she would want her pot to appear like a part of a plant. A green pot takes away the variety of the painting and is boring to look at since it only blends with the leaves. You may use green if you planted red and pink flowers on it.

She soaked it with hot water for easier removal of the price tag and dust. This is to achieve a smoother surface. Next is to wait for a few minutes to dry it up. After that, she started applying the base color. She also discovered that abstract painting is easier to do. She tried painting the day sky.

The night sky is also interesting. You can mix black and blue colors to signify the dark skies and use cotton buds to draw the stars and moon. Silver and white can blend well with the dark background. You may want to buy different sizes of paint brushes to make it easier for you to paint the shapes in detail.

Learn to think outside the box and look for inspiration around you. It could be from your friends, the nature, the places you have gone to, or paintings by the famous artists. Ideas can be found anywhere if you try to look around. Producing a good piece of artwork will require you tons of effort and a lot of time.

This kind of activity is fun and worth your time. During your free time, take a look on some example images that give you a hint for better themes. If you want to free yourself from stress and divert your attention at least once in a while, this activity will help you relax and enjoy planting more than you usually do.
