beautiful.
I also wondered how colorfast it would be with regular use. you should let us know in a few months how it has held up.

Thanks. :)
I'll see about communicating your curiosity to the person currently making use of it.

:O So gorgeous! Look at all those colors! Quite the the amount of detail you packed into it too!

That's beautiful! Is it only a decorative mug or can you use it to drink? I mean can you wash it or put it into the microwave to have a hot drink without ruining the work or art?

Thank you! :) I haven't given one the test of time personally, so I'm not positive how well it stands up long-term in comparison with commercially painted products, but the glaze on it was baked in the oven to set it so it should, at least, be safe for a hot drink or warm-water dishwashing.
