The teacher asked us to paint in the activity class. Allow us to prepare in a week. We actually went to the store to visit the beautiful dishes, or took a picture of distinctive dish from our home. Compare the difference between the past and the current in dishes. Then, we prepared a blank plate and creativly designed personally .
Here is our activity process：

●procedure： 1.We looked for a special dish at home and went to the store near the house for a dish tour. 2.We appreciated the art porcelain plate inside and compared the difference between the past and the present. 3.We creatively thought about designing a plate ourselves. 4.We had to prepare a plate, a box of advertising paints and brushes.Thus, we got started. 5.We referred to the pictures on the Internet and decided the theme of the painting. 6.After overcoming the difficulties, we finally got it！ ●Mood Message：We found that it was difficult to paint the practical acrylic on the plate. Because the pigment was difficult to distribute evenly.

Crab represents the champion. This is our hand-painted work.

Kitchen plate patterns are various. The most common patterns of the old plates are fish, shrimp and fish. According to the interview, Zhu Fangben’s wife told us that Taiwanese people were very poor in the past. Since they couldn’t eat big fish, they simply bought a plate with fish and shrimp, or symbolized with the meal of fish and meat. Interestingly, these patterns have a layer of meaning behind them. As long as the food that poor people are not able to eat , all of them will appear. There are colorful bowls of fish, shrimp, chicken, duck, cow and sheep.

Look at these old things carefully, they are handmade. Each color is different, and these dishes are handmade kiln. The pores are rough. It takes a long time to see the traces of the sauce color infiltrated into the dishes. Each dish is unique. The hand-made dishes are not as elaborate as the factory's large format. Sometimes, the dishes are printed with the year or the gifter.
Early Taiwanese hand-painted dishes flourished  with Taiwanese characteristics, such as fish and shrimp, coconut wind seascape, or auspicious patterns such as Meilan Zhuju and Fu Lushou. They all reflect the social culture at that time.
