New fresh refurbishing ONLINE SHOP!!!

Hello there!

I have fresh uploaded new vintage hand painted ceramics on my Etsy shop.

Lot of dishes, espresso cups and tea cups for all the taste! I hand painted and fired them in my home studio in Berlin, adding to the original glaze and decor my illustrations. The two thing merge perfectly despite the difference of age.

And because of the power of love, Valentine’s Day coming and my incurable romanticism and blablablabla….I’m planning to have soon sales, giveaways and many other surprise so STAY TUNED!

Follow me on Facebook or Instagram for any updated.

Bacio!

Fresh works online!

Hello hello!

Happy new year to everyone!

Back to Berlin after had spent a December escaping the cold winter, before in Hong Kong – I fell in love with this city in a way that I couldn’t never imagine – and then in my beloved homeland, Sicily.
But I couldn’t escape forever, so now it’s time to come back to the cold reality and, I have to say, I missed Berlin! So let’s start the 2017 with a lot of new exiting projects!

Have a look to my fresh uploaded works:

  • These cute wedding bowls I did for three couple of friends.
  • Watercolor sketches I painted in Barcellona, inspired by the autumn.
  • And some fashion portraits for a friend who had a genial idea about a very chic salad bar.

And lot of new stuff is boiling in the pot. Stay tuned!

Rainy summer and Illustrations on vintage ceramics

Hello hello! Happy Saturday and summer weekend to everybody!

The most of you is already in holiday, spending the time in the sun, on a beautiful beach, snorkeling in the sea…aaaaaaahhh!!! I would like to go to the sea too! But this summer I’m staying in Berlin because I have a bunch of work to do.

As some of you maybe already know, I am from Sicily and the month of August for me has meant just sea, beach, summer festival, camping under shooting stars…I am missing all this so much! And also I have to say that this year the summer in Berlin is not really nice, most of the time the sky is cloudy and the temperature makes me think about the end of October in Sicily more than middle of August…

But maybe is better like this, I mean, I have to work anyway so maybe it’s better that the cloudy sky and the fresh air delete every chance to go even to the nearest lake…so sad……….

So let’s try to do a happy twist in the cloudy Berlin’s summer, for example adding to the our lunch table this vintage GDR dish that I hand-painted with the illustration of colorful little girl in the summer rain with her yellow umbrella!

You can find it on my Etsy shop, together with my prints and some of other hand-painted ceramics items.

NEONCHOCOLATE FESTIVAL

I have exciting news for Berlin friends, Cicca will be debuting at Neonchocolate Festival at Berliner Postbahnhof on this weekend, 23rd-24th July from 1pm till 11pm.

I am so excited and a bit nervous, as this is the first time I will be attending an art festival with my illustration work.

I will display my new works of painting on vintage ceramics and some art prints, postcards and two handmade coloring zines!

I have still some work to do, as hand-binding for the zines and painting some pottery, but it is almost done 🙂
Please come this weekend and say hi!

Bacio,

Chiara.

Vintage ceramic love

Here we are!

Looking for new ideas and inspiration it happened to find here in Berlin some beautiful ceramics made in GDR, then I thought: why not try to use them as base for my illustrations?

So now that’s my new obsession: painting on vintage pottery.

That’s one dish I made yesterday 🙂
