For #MacroMondays and this week's theme #Pastel
Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!
This is Lucky. She is a very demanding black cat, and no matter how much food I put into her little china bowl, she is always mewing for her next meal… loudly! However, I love her so much that with a face like hers, I can refuse her nothing!
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 2nd of June is "no real animal". I have no real animal pets of my own, which is too long a story to go into as to why, but I have always loved black cats. When the theme was announced, Lucky was amongst my first thoughts. Lucky is the lucky Royal Doulton black cat with a white face. She was designed by Charles Noke and was issued between 1932 and 1975. My Lucky is from the pre-war 1932 – 1936 period looking at her green backstamp. I hope that you like my choice for this week’s theme, and that it makes you smile!
Royal Doulton is an English ceramic manufacturing company dating from 1815. Operating originally in Vauxhall, London, later moving to Lambeth, in 1882 it opened a factory in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, in the centre of English pottery. From the start the backbone of the business was a wide range of utilitarian wares, mostly stonewares including storage jars, tankards and the like, and later extending to pipes for drains, lavatories and other bathroom ceramics. From 1853 to 1902 its wares were marked Doulton & Co., then from 1902, when a royal warrant was given, Royal Doulton. It always made some more decorative wares, initially still mostly stoneware, and from the 1860s the firm made considerable efforts to get a reputation for design, in which it was largely successful, as one of the first British makers of art pottery. Initially this was done through artistic stonewares made in Lambeth, but in 1882 the firm bought a Burslem factory, which was mainly intended for making bone china tablewares and decorative items. It was a latecomer in this market compared to firms such as Royal Crown Derby, Royal Worcester, Wedgwood, Spode and Mintons, but made a place for itself in the later 19th century. Today Royal Doulton mainly produces tableware and figurines, but also cookware, glassware, and other home accessories such as linens, curtains and lighting. Three of its brands were Royal Doulton, Royal Albert and (after a post-WWII merger) Mintons. Royal Doulton is one of the last great British bone china manufacturers still in existence.
This is the "Bishop" from my brother's Cowboys & Indians chess game that he made years ago. He took some of his childhood plastic Cowboys & Indians, handpainted them, and set them on a chessboard that he also made in his woodshop. The pieces are 3 inches tall, with the exception of the "Knights" and the "Castles" which are taller. And since it was rainy/snowy on Thanksgiving Day, I set him in a potted plant near the window.

My artistic nephew painted the masks himself to co-ordinate with the costumes. He is so talented. In addition to drawing and painting, he carves, and makes jewellery. Each time he visits he has someting new to show me....
A papercut, handpainted in my favorite shade of blue.
It reminds me of old woodcuts.

this cake was a very large expansion of a display cake I had done in light blue and brown. the pattern was inspired by a pen-and-ink floral notecard.
If you're like me, you LOVE sushi. These cookies gave me the challenge of simulating 3-D sushi shapes on 2-D cookies, and I had a blast making them. Each cookie is hand painted on top of royal icing. Tasty (non) fish!

I used a toothpick for the first layer of silver, then used a brush to paint brown over the whole chip when it dried.

A boy and his toys--a pedal car and teddy bear--in a hand-colored Christmas photo, circa 1930s, from the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, area.
Also worth noting: the small wicker chair that teddy's sitting on, the decorations on the Christmas tree, and the nativity scene below the tree.
This is the same little fellow driving this same car out in the yard in the photo of Sonny, Bunny, and Dummy.
For another pedal car from the 1930s, see Pedal Car and First Straw Hat, 1938.
