This 16” Valdres bowl was painted using JoSonja acrylics in 2006.  The bowl comes from “Turn of the Century”, but the design could be easily painted on a plate.

This 16” Telemark bowl was painted using JoSonja acrylics in 2006.  The bowl comes from “Turn of the Century”, but the design could easily be painted on a plate.

I painted this 8 x 1.5 inch bowl with an old style Trondelag design.   This type of decoration was painted from 1600 into the 1800's. 

I love this chicken painted by Sebjorn Kverndalen, a Numedal painter, so I incorporated it into a design to fit this bowl.  The bowl is 1.5 inches deep with a double bead inside which makes it nice for trimming with different colors.  I painted a string of flowers around the outside.

This was one of the 2014 San Diego SDP Convention classes I taught. It's a wonderful small bowl, not very deep and easy to paint. The style is fun, using characteristics from Sebjorn Kaverndalen's influence.
