Mini Mural #80 on 12oz MiiR Camp Cup

Mini Mural on a 12oz MiiR Camp Cup

Why I made this:
Starting my day with peace, joy, and gratitude is super important to me, and I hope this mug will bring you to the same place.

In this particular piece, the element that I like is actually an error - the bleed on the black splatter over sky blue. Clear coat has acetone in it so that the spray nozzle can stay clean - otherwise it would just gum up and get clogged. That's all well and good except for the fact that acetone melts paint. Spray distance and pacing matters a lot in clear coating, and in this case, I got it slightly wrong. If the bleed was rolling down the piece, it wouldn't be interesting to me, it would just be a mistake, but because the bleed flows in a direction I wouldn't expect, I kind of like it (even though it's still an error)

*This piece has been slightly discounted because of the color bleed in the black splatter area*

Living with this piece:
The smooth, satiny clear coat feels really good under the fingers, but the texture of the paint still stands out just a little bit. If you've always wanted to touch the art in a museum, you're really going to love this feature of my work.

Technical details & care:
Vacuum insulated stainless steel for hot or cold temperature retention
Clear lid prevents big spills
Individually painted and sealed with a matte clear coat
Drinking surface and handle of the mug remain MiiR's factory applied powder coat
As you use the mug, any harder edges around the perimeter of the painting will soften slightly
Hand washing will provide the longest lasting finish.
