Blue Willow Butter Dish

Artist Statement
Detail is paramount. Muted ombre stripes begin the process. Painstakingly applied detail implies realism. Balance and harmony are achieved. The scene evokes comfort through tradition. The Blue Willow pattern, Asian at its inception, depicts a tragedy but with a hopeful ending. You are welcomed by the design & invited to pick up the knife to cut a slice of softened butter. Bon Appétit!
