Yes, tea cups can be painted or designed. The craft stores sell a special type of ceramics pain or oil based permanent markers and baking can be used.
Studio ceramics is a small operation run by one or at the most a few people, they are more prone to making one-of-a-kind items like a painter and his/her canvas. The contemporary, I assume you mean the mass produced or the factory setting. They receive designs set down by corporate, and yes the designs change all the time but, thousands are made and less valuable. In my opinion the free spirit of imagination flies higher than the corporate jet of contemporary ceramics. I agree with your opinion about studio ceramics. However, I work for a company called Country Love Ceramics in the UK and we tend to supply to "contemporary" ceramic studios. Typically, this is "paint your own pottery" businesses. Our customers buy bisque (pottery blanks) from us and then they sell the blanks for decorating in their studios or home-based businesses. The end result is an individual, uniquely painted item with sentimental value. For example, one of the most popular activities is painting a plate or mug with a child's/baby's footprints or handprints - it's such a lovely keepsake. I guess the biggest difference is that, unlike a traditional pottery studio, our customers do not make the pieces from clay themselves.

Your question is too vague so I'll ask lots more questions. What type of ceramics are you thinking of? Ceramics for electricity or functional ceramics for eating off of or perhaps decorative stuff? Do you use a potters wheel or hand build? Will you be using kilns to fire your product or perhaps firing in pits for that Old look? What cone will your ceramics be fired too and what type of clay will you use? Who are your customers? If this is a functional/decorative product, where will you sell your stuff - at a shop or at art shows? Full-time or hobby?
