Island Designs first discovered the ancient
art of "Nei Hua" or inside painting in mid 1999. Island Designs
decided to design Christmas ornaments produced with this technique. These
ornaments are designed in the U.S.A. Each ornament is hand painted on the inside
and and takes up to two days to complete. Every ornament is a one of a kind
keepsake for generations to come.
The inside of the glass ornament is
acid washed to make the paint stick, then the painter starts with the front
image and paints "backward" to the background. This is the opposite of
traditional art.
The tiny paintings are created with a small brush with a
hook shape inserted in the small hole at the top of the ornament.
The
miniature paintings are created via a small brush with a hooked end that is
passed through the small hole in the top of the bottle or ornament.
It is
exciting to design and produce this ancient art form for everyone to enjoy. We
hope this same excitement is felt when a person opens a gift and experiences
these treasures for the first time.
