NaArMaMo Day 5 - Vila lifts a glass

Today's entry for the [livejournal.com profile] naarmamo National Art Making Month challenge is Vila raising a glass in honour of [livejournal.com profile] zoefruitcake, because it's her birthday and she loves Vila as much as I do. Happy birthday, Zoe!

There seem to be a lot of birthdays at the beginning of August, and this is good because they give me ideas for topics. I might also add that I had a moment of sheer terror while doing this because my graphics pen stopped working and I thought my tablet had died. However a reboot fixed that. This is the wrong month for that to happen; my heart rate's still getting back to normal. :-P

"Mmmm, quite a fruity bouquet. I'd say this was made from real grapes."

My NaArMaMo 2007 Gallery is here.

It comes naturally to him!

He's toasting a lady I can see it in his eyes, he's flirting. Lovely.

Vila the connoisseur! :-)

Nicely done, vilakins.

Vila has a wide knowledge of alcholohic drinks, some made from potatoes and old socks.

Thank you! :-D

Made me smile. As ever, love your use of colouring. It strikes me that many of your pieces would look good on a decorative tile. You know the sort that are sold in design stores? I think they'd work well with the glazes.

Yeah, I know those; I love them. I did paint some ceramics a couple of years ago (two plates and a tile), but it's a lot harder than it looks. The tiles you mean (here anyway) are different from that though; they have thick raised glaze or something on them. Very nice effect.

I've friends who do some sort of painting on glass, which might be another possibility.

I've got a sunflower on glass somewhere. I was going to hang it in the high window in the stairwell but I'm afraid of heights, and now I have no idea what I did with it.
