"My" green bottle, with buffalo and lion - from Isfahar, Iran, 1600-1700 |

The colour definitely adds something! |
These were in the case behind me - tools and cobalt used in the production of blue and white wares in China -
Later I found these giraffes cosying up to each other

Group of giraffes by Stella Crofts (1898-1964), made in Billericay, Esses, 1923 |
I dreaded putting in "all those spots" and tackled it generically rather than as an exact copy -
Not enough time to draw these, this time -
Seraphin Soudbinine's style is "a mixture of Russian and Chinese" ... but to me it looks rather Meso-American.

No doubt the gallery offered a feast of possibilities. That green glass bottle and those entwined giraffes were lovely. The wonderful wonky Alison britton pot offers a great contrast.
I read some of her book 'Seeing Things' earlier in the year - so much covered - a most interesting lady. I must find focused time to finish it.
