Having dogs and cats of my own, my obsession with animals led me to wonder: wouldn't it be wonderful to integrate the animals I love into daily life, so that art isn't just for viewing, but a companion for every day? Thus, I combine pure hand-painting with porcelain, capturing cute, mischievous, and personality-filled animals on ceramic plates and mugs. Since establishing my studio in 2014, I have hand-painted over a thousand pieces. Each brushstroke is done by hand, giving every work its own unique expression and story—one of a kind and irreplaceable. Looking ahead, I hope to continue this journey of animal porcelain painting, painting my love for animals into life and allowing this small animal kingdom to travel even further. **Starting with a single piece of porcelain, keep the animals you love in your life.** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51960408151_3c8d83bc60_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51960687694_ac70bf7604_z.jpg ## Custom Works Q&A **Q| How do I order a custom piece?** Beyond the original works in our gallery, Nien offers custom animal porcelain painting services, turning your beloved pets, animals, and memories into a piece of porcelain for long-lasting appreciation. Customization Process: Send a private message to Nien with the photos you would like painted, the porcelain style, and your specific requirements. Discuss composition, text, and details with Nien to confirm the final content. Once confirmed, Nien will create a dedicated order. Production will be scheduled upon completion of payment. We recommend providing clear, well-lit photos that show the animal's facial features, fur color, and distinct characteristics so Nien can capture their unique likeness in detail. **Q| What are the costs for custom works?** Basic customization includes: **One animal subject + decorative elements (flowers, butterflies, etc.) + custom text** Reference pricing: ・6-inch plate/mug | From NT$1,200 ・7-inch plate | From NT$1,500 ・8-inch plate | From NT$1,900 ・Additional animal on the same piece | From +NT$500 Special compositions, complex backgrounds, multiple animals, or other specific requests will be quoted individually based on the final design. **Q| How long does production take?** Each piece is hand-painted by Nien. From composition and painting to kiln-firing for color fixation, every step requires time. General production time is **at least 14 working days**; actual delivery depends on the current order volume and complexity of the work. If you have a birthday, anniversary, or specific gifting date, we suggest sending a private message to check our schedule before placing an order. **Q| How do I care for my porcelain pieces?** To keep your piece in its best condition for longer, we recommend: ・Wash gently using a soft sponge and mild detergent. ・Avoid using abrasive sponges, steel wool, or abrasive cleaning products. ・Not recommended for use in dishwashers or microwaves. ・Avoid prolonged soaking or scrubbing the painted surface vigorously. With careful use and storage, your hand-painted piece will maintain its color and texture for a long time. **Q| Is the paint used safe?** Nien uses German-made porcelain paints, and all pieces are kiln-fired to set the colors after completion. As these painted works are intended primarily for artistic appreciation and collection, we recommend avoiding direct contact between the painted patterns and high-temperature food. Plates are recommended as **dessert plates, cold-food plates, or home art decor**; they can also be displayed with a stand or hung as wall art. Every piece is not just a dish, but a small painting that preserves a story for you. **Q| How are the porcelain pieces shipped?** Each piece is carefully wrapped before shipment, using cushioning materials to provide complete protection. We pack items for fragile goods to minimize the risk of collision and breakage during transport. Products are sent via courier to ensure they reach you safely. * Thank you to Cat's Life magazine for the interview https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51959458687_933f7001a3_z.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51961027975_bc25138d01_z.jpg
