But how is this entire hand painting done on the tiles?

The painters use different tools such as the brushes, palette knife, calligraphy pen and soft pencils, and materials like the China paints, lavender oil and turpentine.

First of all, the ceramic tiles are cleaned thoroughly with soap water and allowed to dry. By the time the tiles are dried, the painter prepares a good mix of the paint, lavender oil and turpentine. When the tiles are dry and ready for painting, the painter uses the brush and palette knife to smear and blend colors on the tile surface.
