Sketching for Jingdezhen

This is what kept me busy (and sweating) the last few very hot weeks (very unusual hot weather for The Netherlands). Working on sketches for some highly secret projects involving the Jingdezhen International Ceramic fair and the Imperial Porcelain Museum in Jingdezhen, China.
A few weeks ago I met with professor Jiang Jian Xin director of the Imperial Porcelain Museum at the Blue Revolution exhibition at Het Prinsenhof museum in Delft.
Professor Jiang Jian Xin is an archaeologist and therefore we also visited the archeology department of Delft, looking for Chinese export porcelain from the 17th century (called Kraak porcelain).
