    I have a great aunt who has been my pen pal for over a decade. She’s inspired my love of sending post cards and hand written letters. I’m now the friend that mails you a birthday card and I exchange post cards with an international friend. There’s nothing nicer than coming home from a day of working to find a letter someone spent their time on thinking of you. 💌

    It’s refreshing hearing you talk about giving credit to designers and artists. Art as a living always seems a bit hit or miss to me, I think most artists really struggle for financial stability, it must be so much harder when they don’t get credited for their work.

      This is what the EU was trying to address with it's new copyright laws a few years ago. Needless to say many people on the internet had a massive temper tantrum about it.

      It is so important to give credit to artists. And it seems very tricky to get to make a living from making your own thing.
      But at least it is not that hard to make a living working as an artist in some industries. Of course that means working for other people and creating what they want you to make, but it isn't all bad. :)

    I know a school where each child was given a tile like this to draw a self-portrait and then they were all placed together on an outside wall somewhere. They did this for a few years in a row (with the year 6/senior kids) and it lasted really well and is such a nice thing for the school and the kids when they come back to visit.

    I love the meme tile set! I immediately thought the tiles would be cute as mini canvases of famous artworks, like monet water lilies, van gogh sun flowers, or John Russell's peonies

    Your own series of stamps would have to be illustrations of your Australian animal Pottery. It would be very meta if you illustrated them onto these tiles. 😊

    • @DawnDavidson

    What a genius idea. The stamps are in delicate detail. The flowerpot such a joyful image, would be a great tabletop. The meme speaks to so much, glad you could honor the artist. Thanks for sharing your memory of your Nana. Cheers from the Midwest USA. 💜

    @stephanieruggles7360 Год назад +3

    These tiles would make beautiful signs for garden herbs: a rosemary branch with blooms and its name. Same for thyme and others. Just put a popsicle stick into it before it goes into the kiln. Would best sell in coming spring. Or at Finders Keepers... Or make them 3D: attach those little mice, froggies or squirrels from the other reveals in them.

    @clayrblu Год назад +6

    I still get such a joy from picking out stamps at the post office. We use stamps relatively often. During our yearly Christmas trip I usually send out several postcards and always try to get the fun stamps for those. I just love sending mail lol. I had a few pen pals when I was young and we'd send each other cute little stickers and bracelets and stuff. That's a very sweet memory you have of your Nan ❤ I hope you do a collector series of stamps to honor that. 🥰

  • @WhatHowWhenforWhomWhatpurpose
    @WhatHowWhenforWhomWhatpurpose Год назад +1

    Maybe make set of four and mount them in a thin wooden frame, or glue on a cork base to go with your teapots, for coasters? Maybe a set of matching coasters for mugs and a combo of four for the pot? But I don't know anything about ceramics, and maybe it's a different kind of clay/ process to make ceramics okay with having pots on them. It would be lovely though, matching mugs/ tea pots/ tea sets with custom tile coasters.

    Oooh I love the idea of a coaster set with these! That way they're still a cool artwork when no in use (and if you're like me and never know where things are, if they're part of a bigger piece, they have a home to go to so you always know where they are!)

    Shelby, I miss stamps too. My dad has a collection I always marveled at. 1 cent and such was so weird to me. I recently started writing letters again to my family and kids now that they moved out. I had postcards made of a family inside joke and they have really enjoyed receiving them. Helps us stay in touch in a different way ❤

    I liked the four tile design, simple can be cute too! Glued to a base it could be a pot stand for the kitcheb table. 😊

  • @doglover7457
    @doglover7457 Год назад +1

    Nice. Regarding the custom colours, I use a lot of custom colours and I mix more of each colour then I need and store the left over underglaze in small sauce containers. They do dry out over time but it is easy enough to add more water as it becomes necessary. Just an idea.

    These remind me of a project we did over 15 years ago at my church. We had a big celebration and kids and adults created ceramic tiles with underglaze. Any design they wished. The tiles were sent to be glazed and fired. We have several spots on campus where large grids of the final tiles are mounted.

    Shelby, thank you SO much for addressing that even viral memes do not exist in a vacuum and that an actual human is behind the artwork. KC Green has had this stolen so many times and profited off, and it's a story pretty much any artist posting their work online can relate to, unfortunately - art theft is a big problem and when you ask people to credit they usually get extremely defensive, rude and even malicious. Creating a culture of accountability and actually crediting artists appropriately (not just saying "credit to whoever made this" or "via pinterest") is the only way that it will gain momentum. I'm delighted to hear you had a discussion with Green before doing this. Thanks for that and for talking about it! Love the tile set! 😍😍

    I really like picture stamps too. Most of the ones in the UK are just the monarchs head but occasionally we get ones commemorating an event or person. They have updated the stamps with barcodes on the sides to make them work with new technology but still have the picture and I think that's the best of both worlds 😊 love the artworks this week, your videos always spark joy ❤

  • @pama.6410
    @pama.6410 Год назад +1

    This might be one of your best projects. These little tiles are so precious individually and grouped. The vase of flowers is a beautiful accent. The meme should probably be framed to be used as wall art in someone's study or office. Love the stamp memories you have. That is so special. Would love to see you do your kitchen in your art!!!

  • @kristal8473
    @kristal8473 Год назад

    My mind is running wild with ideas! When you started placing the "random" tiles I immediately thought of The Very Hungry Caterpillar and all of the foods that he ate through. That would be such a cute design element in a child's play space!
    If you wanted to really commit to the tiles you could take custom orders as well. I traveled to Portugal last year and decorative tiles were everywhere. I would love to have miniatures of some of the ones in my photos!

  • @winterprism9227
    @winterprism9227 9 месяцев назад

    I'm watching all your old videos and see so much potential in how to incorporate into your new shop. Like these could be used for people to paint and contribute to a wall in your new shop. Or as a classroom field trip, each student could paint a tile to add to a class mural. The teachers could work out just how they wanted to do that or what lesson they might want to incorporate. Like geometry, a lesson on working together to make a bigger piece with a twist letting them decide what colors or whatever, etc... Each kid could paint the same thing, like a flower, to see how everyone's ideas are different but still awesome and unique to them..
    You could also make a bunch of magnets for sale, and put put them for sale on your stores refrigerator.

    @DawnDavidson Год назад

    Oh gosh, Shelby, this is GOLD! I see you doing so many of these over the years! I’m in love with your stamps. And the “This is fine” meme! LOL. So perfect, with the dog going into the kiln for firing. 😅😂🤣 When I travelled to Portugal in 2015, I brought back some fridge magnet tiles for souvenirs. I would so love to have YOUR tiles to bring back if I ever manage to visit my stepdaughter in Australia! And honestly, if you are going to put your work into the mail for overseas, I can much more easily imagine getting these tiles across the oceans safely. Not to mention it being just more affordable all around to be able to get a tiny bit of your work, for those of us too far to be able to get our own mushie mug or whatever. :) This is such a perfect mould for you!!! The literal blank canvas on which to express all your amazing art!
    (Also, now I want to find a similar mould over here, so I can collaborate with my artistic potter friend and put my Zentangle-inspired art on my own tiles, and eventually use it for a backsplash in a tiny house …!)

    The instructor had an M. C. Etcher drawing made into tiles one (1) inch square. We were each given one to enlarge to 18 inches square...the piece was stunning when up on the wall...I don't think I would remember so vividly except one person LOST their tile!!!!! It was jaw dropping shock 😲 🎉❤

    Thank you for this video. You brought back so many memories in my life that made me smile and brought a tear to my eyes. A little summary of them ... my pop and I collected stamps we took them off everything right down to air mail stamps on letters he wrote to my nan when he was flying. The butterflies 🦋 reminded me of my mom that I lost to cancer 20 years ago this Christmas eve she was in a wing of a hospital they called the butterfly wing. Thank you for bringing the memories back sometimes I think I'm forgetting. My mom was an artist and I remember when she went back to college I would go with her and would hang out with the other artists and they would let me make pots then they would fire them for me I still have some of them. I wish I had your mailing address to add to your stamps. Again thank you.
