..The leaves should  not  be arranged chaotically. . The harmony is achieved by means of rational   distribution  of  limited space between   the elements of the composition .The leaves  should not  touch each other or the trunk of the tree, or  to  stick out  excessively .
  The  gap in between - at least a few millimeters . There should not be  too much or too little..The leaves cannot exactly repeat the angle and  the  position to the surfaces of  each other, but should  follow  definite  directions and lines in general .

...I call the Tree " Medusa" ..
Each  leaf should be accessible visually
and have some space around it..

....  The "Hedgehog  effect" .. I call the Tree "Medusa", the view of the branches from above reminds me allegorically spread tentacles of medusa circling in the dance  in the  water column of the sea...
     I didn't seek to this effect consciously. Visual demonstration of the process cannot demonstrate   the problems  of  "Techno - Engineering" character I had to cope with in the process  of recreation of the Tree..On  the one hand -there are  frameworks of the genre, subject and traditions of European Porcelain in general  which should be considered. The Art component : I think I came  quite close to that notion .On the other hand  I had to reckon  with  properties of the materials used, their compatibility and  limitations. Careful  planning  several steps ahead ,some skill  and a lot of patience, as well as the ability to see  the problem from different angles.. ...

Fingers  are the weakest points of any figural composition ..
I always prefer to  create the fingers manually  only. Without  random molds and casts..Modelling  takes time ,but its worth it.And  No  "Bunch of bananas " effects after treatment....



Plate 12


... Completely manual process, millimeters, centimeters ,drops..10 types of different   appropriate  materials,10 variations of pigments. Many hours Every centimeter  of  the surface of the trunk, each of 67 leaves 1,5 mm thick ,face and rear surfaces - created, polished and colored .Made  to last for decades to come.

Bellow - 2 joints of the  damaged index finger ,
broken off ,lost  -  3,5 mm of missing flesh
recreated ..almost done..

..There were   some  rules of the compositional  arrangement  of the  leaves  as  single units  and  at the same time  -  as the  parts of the whole compositional  formation  of the body of the Oak Tree..Some leaves were  twisted with rear surfaces  up /or  with different gradations of the angle..To make them look "naturally " I deliberately   changed the angles  and intensity of the bending of the blades  of many leaves and their cuttings,  which initially  were  mostly  identical in shape and curve  after casting and polishing..





If you have any precious item made of porcelain
which needs attention of  a  restorer...Please contact me  and   I will try  to do  my best to  meet  your requirements ..


   These firmly attached  leaves can withstand the touch and
   reasonable pressure  of  your finger , just  like those made  of  true porcelain ...
These  images here give you a good aportunity to see  the classical "Invisible restoration" of the broken  finger... :)
