Artist Gertrude Anderson Armantrout was born on October 11, 1891 in Topeka, Kansas. 

Armantrout used one of the more common processes for painting porcelain. She began with a blank on which she sketched her basic design. Blanks are undecorated porcelain forms in either glazed or bisque state (fired, but un-glazed). Blanks were purchased from catalogs, department stores, local studios, or directly from the companies producing them. At the height of the porcelain-painting craze, most china companies (such as Lenox) offered full lines of blanks.
