BONE PORCELAIN FROM SNAIL SHELL

The artist is known for his overglaze painting on bone china from snail shells, the artist-potter uses of powder crushed snail shells as bone mass (white clay (kaolin), spar and quartz are mixed with burnt ashes of snail shells). This is the world's only unique technology for the production of bone china based on the ash of a snail shell.
Thin porcelain has a slightly beige tint, most of the works have a snail theme and adorn the walls and of well-known art private collections.
This is Tim's hobby, and there are very few works on unique bone china. Tim's works are sold at private auctions or the master donates to close friends.
Nglaze painting is applied with special high-temperature paints and fired at a temperature of 1100C.
Tim's works made from unique bone china from snail shells are a rarity, and the cost of a small porcelain wall plate reaches several thousand euros.
And the workshop of an amateur artist-potter is located right on Tim's snail farm in a picturesque town on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea.
"Any art is eternal, and the snail is a symbol of time" - Tim jokes. "Traditionally, bone clay in China, England, France, Russia is замісив with flour from bones and cattle, less often, from poultry bones. Calcium from snails is in no way inferior, and even much better, for a i am long time I experimented with proportions and roasting and finally got real bone china from a snail."
The theme of the drawings is mainly animalistic and abstract painting with snails, less often - the architecture of the Old World.
