Last week, I introduced "Pog the pig" to my students. He's a ceramic piggy bank I got for $2 and then tangled on with an Identipen. The tangles are starting to wear out a little so I was thinking of using a sealant to seal the ink.
If you know any sealant brands that work well with ceramic, let me know in the comments section below.

| Original pig. |

| I made his eyes bigger so he'll be more cute. |

| Everyone loves the swirly tail. hehehe |
 |
| Really simple Zendala on the side. |
Here's my submission for Joey's challenge. Featuring Girdy. I added cool shading to it.
And here's my submission for Diva's challenge. Featuring colours of my country's flag- red and white, and one of my own tangles; Singapore Sling. I added some colloured pencils to the background, too.
And as always, here are some tiles I completed for the Travelling Tangles Project.

| A tile from Shawna Martin. I added Zonked on the top left. I love Zonked. It's so dramatic. |
 |
| Tile done with Debra Huff. I did the background. |
 |
| I'm really proud of this one. Done with Marguerite Samama. |
In other news, I got my braces removed. Woohoo!
And lastly, here's a pouch that one of my students did. She's twelve years old only! I'm beyond proud of her.
What wonderful tiles you have produced. A great response to the Diva's challenge and amazing Girdy for Joey. That piggy bank is amazing, sorry I can't help with sealant suggestions.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind comment! :D
DeleteAnother wonderful gallery show today! I'm sorry you're not well:-( I really love your Joey challenge-very original and creative. Funny, I just saw Singapore Sling somewhere, not knowing what it was called or where it came from, and made note of it in my sketchbook because I liked it so much. Thank you for all of the inspiration you share;-)
ReplyDeleteOnly when you're ill do you realise how important health is.... :(
DeleteI'd love to see what you create with Singapore Sling. It's also the main theme for the Travelling Tangles Project's monthly swap for August. :D
For a person who hasn't been feeling well, you have been VERY productive. I also cannot recommend a sealant for your pig, but he is a very nice pig. I visited Singapore in 2014 (before I was a tangler), but I didn't remember that the flag was red and white. I visited 4 other countries in Southeast Asia before arriving there, so I think all the flags have smushed together in my brain. What did you use for the red background? I need to try your Singapore Sling tangle. I had one of the liquid kind in that very high outside bar on top of the Raffles Centre. I hope you are feeling better. PS: Very nice smile!
ReplyDeleteSingapore's flag is red on top and white at the bottom, with a moon and five stars on the top left corner. Visiting so many countries must have been wonderful. And yes; Singapore Sling is an alcoholic drink, too! Hahaha I'd love to see what you create with the tangle version of it.
DeleteThank you for your kind comment. :)
