The sculpture has several parts. The legs body tail and human figure will be assembled once fired.

Proverbs and Text

 Working on a series of monochromatic illustrative sculptures many of them inspired by literal translations of proverbs making them playful and humourous.





Title: Bird Brained. 

I have used black underglaze and am toying with the idea of using clear glaze on only some parts of the sculpture or using matt clear glaze on the entire sculpture.




 Title - Ho chi pin.


Work in Progress- Two Peas in a Pod , a large sculpture  18 inches in length, which just about fitted in my kiln. 










Sketching Metamorphosis

 Started sketching iterations of the vase I am studying. I started with aquatic animal forms which gradually transformed into more freeflowing human forms. The first few drawings were more controlled after which I gradually tried to lose control , drawing without thinking.
