And he found one.
Black Dragon Plate
Exploring a minimalist dragon-silhouette design on a plate. A plate works well as a canvas because it’s much easier to manage. I also tried another dragon style that’s completely different, and I’ll post it soon.
Castle in the Sky
I’ve been experimenting with new surfaces for my ceramics, and I realize that a vase is a excellent canvas. The height gives me more space to capture detailed subjects, like the magnificent robot from Laputa: Castle in the Sky. For this piece, I decided to try painting the robot along with the golden Laputa emblem…
Horse is my favorite Chinese zodiac. Well, I am a horse
🐎 Fire Horse 2026 — My Continuous Line Drawing Journey I’ve been exploring one-line drawing, also known as continuous line art, and it’s been such a fun and freeing process. This year, I started sketching a few concepts inspired by Horses and I’m documenting my art design process to share here. Since 2026 will be…
Mazinger Z
Mazinger Z is another childhood memory I have. I barely remember any plot or the pilot but the robot and the weapons of Mazinger Z have been imprinted in my little mind. I remember pretending my arms amd fists can fly and hit bad guys. LOL
Nature’s Beauty
Sometimes I draw inspiration from nature, like many artists do. Other times, I snap spontaneous photos—people on the street, at the mall when I’m traveling, walking my dog, or simply while sipping my morning coffee. Honestly, the phone camera might be one of the best inventions ever. Through its lens, I can capture tiny moments…
Families of Gnomes
Gnomes and elves are such wonderful fantasy characters. I’m always amazed by how many different portrayals of them exist—in storybooks, cartoons, animations, and live-action movies! I remember there was even a movie about blue and red gnomes or something like that. They all have so much attitude, and they’re cute and funny too. I started…
Unique Dragon Scale Mugs: A Handmade Fantasy Creation
Inspired by images of dragon scales—probably from a fantasy movie—I created a pair of large mugs featuring a scale pattern and a rustic, handmade feel. I made the scales pointy to distinguish them from those of fish and snakes. If I were to make them again, I’d try larger scales with a slightly different overlapping…
I had drawn Goku, but not on ceramic plate until…
I asked a fellow potter which animated character he’d recognize on a pot without a doubt. His answer? Goku. So of course, I had to try! Painting with underglaze on bisqueware is a whole new vibe—nothing like paper, but so much fun!
Iron Man Boot Mug – Mark 2
After retiring Mark 1, I went on to make Mark 2—smaller, cuter, and a bit more refined. 🦾☕ Which Iron Man suit I based it on? Honestly, I can’t remember. I spent hours hunting for clips of Iron Man’s boot online… and it was nearly impossible to find! I guess the boot is not very…
