Molly Hammond Creates Distinctive Usable Fine Art For Home Decor |
Addtime:2008-1-3 |
Molly Hammond of Tile Images will be featured in the March - April
Addition of Midwest Living Magazine. Molly will also be exhibiting at
the Indianapolis Home and Garden Show. Molly, an international artist
working with porcelain and ceramics says, "along with answering
questions I will be doing some demo painting in my booth. I will also
be displaying some of my ideas and works in progress as well. - One of
my current peices was requested for a new home in the Indianapolis area
valued at $750,000 to add some warmth to the house that is on the
market."
"It is a very unique service that I offer. It reflects
the clients personality too because I am painting what they
adore...transporting my clients thoughts and imagination to a visual
piece. My clients have the additional satisfaction and enjoyment of the
direct participation in the creative process . I take the talent God
gave me to help another produce art that maybe they don¨t have the
ability to do. So in essence I am the hands that produce the art that
is in my clients minds. They not only have their own piece of original
art that can never be duplicated but a usable piece that makes their
house their home. All the client needs is an idea of a subject they
want - I then can help them in the design process", says Molly Hammond.
"Molly
is a truly inspirational artist, working intimately with her clients to
meet their project parameters. She uses the ancient art of china
painting to custom design and hand paint sinks, tiles and water
closets", stated her publicist. Painting on ceramic and porcelain
results in permanent pieces of art that will last forever. China
painting is an ancient art that involves multiple layers of special
glaze that is applied to a piece of previously glazed porcelain or
ceramic to form a visual design. After each layer is painted, the piece
is fired in a kiln to make a permanent glaze. The tiles can be used
anywhere tile is used: floors, pools, tubs, spas, showers, outside
walls, backsplashes or fireplaces. The sinks and water closets are
created in the same way and are usable.
All of Molly's work is
hand painted and custom designed. No decals are used and no two pieces
will ever be the same. The piece of art that is created, will be around
far longer than the artist that created it, adding immeasurable value
to her clients homes.
Biography: ^Molly Hammond has been
married 29 years, she works form her home studio. Molly has been a stay
at home mom for about 18 years. Molly has always been creative. She
started Tile Images 2 years ago when it was time for her to close the
chapter of her life of raising her boys. Molly then opened another
exciting chapter. She was running out of space for pretty dishes that
she was painting. Molly says "I needed to find a way to make my passion
suitable for modern living and help pay for my boys college!. That is
when I came up with the idea of painting on high quality sinks and
tile." Molly started painting the water closets about 6 months ago. She
didn¨t know if would work, but it did. "I love this art and get great
satisfaction out of painting something beautiful for somebody else to
enjoy," says Molly. ^I paint for the client, not the manufacturer.
Its a lovely way to share my gift of the exquisite and ancient art of
ceramic and porcelain painting. ̄ ~Molly Hammond (cn-stonenet.com) |
