Q&A: I’m painting a mug, any design ideas?
Question by Sam: I’m painting a mug, any design ideas?
I started painting stupid little pottery things in my spare time now a bunch of people are asking me to make them ones, and I ran out of ideas.. I like to do little designs or pictures, I plan to give one to my sister for her birthday. She is 21 (don’t worry I’m getting her an adult gift too >_<) and in college. I'm looking for something intricate and detailed, something that would take me forever to paint but would come out fantastic. Best answer:

I’ve always like rainbows and musical notes for some reason; or flowers; I’ve seen paw prints for pet lovers.

Look online for designs made my Maya Indians, and the Nazca Lines, and other ancient South American Indian designs. I made a pot with a Nazca hummingbird design on it and it looks pretty good. And also a Maya bird thing design looks good on my pot. They are intricate without being impossible to do.
Here’s video that someone did that kinda shows Nazca lines in a cartoon:
