Over sixty step-by-step photographs illustrate all the techniques used for painting on china and porcelain. Each section shows how these can be applied to a whole range of surfaces including tiles, plates, bowls, lamp bases, vases and jewellery. Many different styles are explored, from delicately painted flowers, leaves, birds and landscapes to beautiful relief patterns and unusual designs.

This colourful and practical book is ideal for the beginner, but it also offers plenty of inspiration and ideas for the more experienced china painter.
