**¡Saludos comunidad DIY!.**
Desde muy niña mi madre acostumbraba a mantenerme ocupada haciendo cursos de cualquier cosa, cuando no era música era de pintura y aprendí muchos oficios sobre esta, técnicas que hoy por hoy las aplico en mis dibujos al digital, es por ello que enfatizo mucho en los ojos de cada uno.
Nunca pude sorprenderlos con mis habilidades para la pintura y el arte de esta forma, porque vivía en un lugar demasiado cohibido y donde no había nada de los materiales que se usan para estas cosas.
Al regresar a mi tierra, acudí a los lugares donde acostumbraba a ir con mi madre a ver si habían sobrevivido a la crisis. Ese día me fui caminando y llegué hasta allá me sentí una niña de nuevo entre tantos y tantos modelos que hay en esa fábrica de moldes, cerámica cruda, barbotina, pinturas, modelos, ¡Wow! Solo faltaba mi madrecita.
Tengo una historia algo larga y muy conmovedora de estos niños cantores en cerámica.
Resulta que, como todo lo que hago, termino obsequiando o vendiendo porque alguien se enamora de esas creaciones, muchas veces no salían de casa, mi madre tenía una colección de 15 muñequitas de estas en varios modelos con sus parejitas, diferentes colores y decoraciones. Cuando llegaba diciembre los ponía a todos al pie del árbol de navidad, en el nacimiento y en la mesa.
Cuando pintaba uno para venderlo o regalarlo o incluso para mí, mi madre me miraba con esos ojos a los que nunca podía decirle que no: ¡Aw! Hija, ese está mas lindo que el anterior, me encantan sus ojos y el color. A lo que le respondía: - ¡Mamá! Tienes cientos, ¿No es suficiente? Ella me respondía con una sonrisa de niña traviesa: - Nop! Y terminaba siendo la colección de mi madre que luego, luego, terminaba otro cantor y ya ella estaba discutiendo con mi compadre de quien iba a quedarse con ella, generalmente era ella o él que me los compraba.
Mis piezas exclusivas entonces no salían mucho al mercado. Luego una señora y una cuñada en diciembre me acaparaban compraban bizcochos de cerámica y me pagaban para aplicarles mis artes aprendidas.
Hoy te traigo no solo mi tradición familiar, te traigo mis conocimientos y todo ese amor que conlleva hacerlos, espero que sea de tu total agrado y pueda transmitir la felicidad que siento.
¡Felices fiestas amigos!

**Greetings beautiful community!
Since I was a child my mother used to keep me busy doing courses of anything, when it wasn't music it was painting and I learned many trades about this, techniques that today I apply in my digital drawings, that's why I emphasize a lot on the eyes of each one.
I was never able to surprise them with my skills for painting and art in this way, because I lived in a place too self-conscious and where there were none of the materials used for these things.
When I returned to my homeland, I went to the places where I used to go with my mother to see if they had survived the crisis. That day I walked and got there, I felt like a child again among so many models in that factory of molds, raw ceramics, slip, paints, models, Wow! The only thing missing was my mother,
I have a long and very touching story about these ceramic singing children.
It turns out that, like everything I do, I end up giving them away or selling them because someone falls in love with these creations, many times they never left home, my mother had a collection of 15 of these dolls in various models with their couples, different colors and decorations. When December arrived she put them all at the foot of the Christmas tree, in the nativity scene and on the table.
When I painted one to sell or give away or even for myself, my mother would look at me with those eyes that I could never say no to: Aw! Daughter, that one is prettier than the last one, I love the eyes and the color. To which I would reply: - Mom! You have hundreds, isn't that enough? She would answer me with a naughty smile: - Nope! And it would end up being my mother's collection and then, later, another singer would finish and she was already arguing with my compadre about who was going to keep it, usually it was her or him who bought them for me.
My exclusive pieces were not very much on the market at that time. Then in December, a lady and a sister-in-law would buy ceramic biscuits from me and pay me to apply my learned arts to them.
Today I bring you not only my family tradition, I bring you my knowledge and all that love that goes with making them, I hope you like it and I can transmit the happiness I feel.
Happy Holidays friends!

Este será un curso muy básico aunque aplicaré varias técnicas como envejecido para cabello y esponjas.
Lo primero que hay que hacer es lijar toda la pieza, usa una Lija media de 150 a 180 grano, pule toda la pieza, luego mostraré próximamente tutoriales para restaurar y acomodar fallos en las piezas o bizcochos de cerámica.
Como la pieza es realmente grande, es mejor pintar con un pincel muy grande o una brocha, yo usé una y procede a dar la primera capa, deja secar, luego si es necesario aplicas otra.
La esponja que uso, es una esponja común para lavar la vajilla pero esta apropósitamente la compré porque tiene cierta textura un moldeado que me encantó.
Aplica muy poca pintura sobre la esponja y da ligeros toques en el final del vestido de la pieza, en el busto y las mangas.

This will be a very basic course although I will apply several techniques such as antiquing for hair and sponges.
The first thing to do is to sand the whole piece, use a medium sandpaper 150 to 180 grit, polish the whole piece, then I will show tutorials soon to restore and accommodate faults in ceramic pieces or bisque.
As the piece is really big, it is best to paint with a very large brush or a brush, I used one and proceed to give the first coat, let dry, then if necessary apply another.
The sponge I use is a common dishwashing sponge but I bought this one because it has a certain texture and molding that I loved.
Apply very little paint on the sponge and give light touches on the end of the dress of the piece, on the bust and sleeves.

Yo prefiero en algunos caso usar bordado líquido para hacer decoraciones en cerámica, así que aplico una serie de motivos que simulan un tejido. Esto lo repito en mangas y el final del vestido.
Hay que dejar secarlo un tiempo prudencial. Me gusta mucho esta marca de bordado líquido o pintura fashion, porque el aplicador es fino y el contenido es durable, si os cuento, esta pintura tiene conmigo 12 años no me creerían, está intacta como pueden ver.

I prefer in some cases to use liquid embroidery to make ceramic decorations, so I apply a series of motifs that simulate a fabric. I repeat this on the sleeves and the end of the dress.
It must be left to dry for a reasonable time. I really like this brand of liquid embroidery or fashion paint, because the applicator is thin and the content is durable, if I tell you, this paint is 12 years old with me you would not believe me, it is intact as you can see.
