YAY ! Preview!

These are not finished, they will be disassembled and then have various treatments done to them--they will have colors, moderately striking colors.




Little flower girl--top will be glazed, unsure about feet but they will be colored. The legs dangle and are the stamen of the flower. Yes, she is a male flower. That cracks me up...but...I am strange.
Horseshoe crab-like fellow. 7 dangling bug legs (8 holes one extra...it looks interesting if the missing leg is in the middle...I'm stange) and a dangling tail too. Going to use a dark, smooth, oil treatment.


An assembled skeleton critter, the cow version
Here is cow with the other pieces, enough to make three complete characters, cow with hooves, mesosaur with flippers, and dead thing with scratchy feet. These will be coated with a rubbed off underglaze and fired, it should give some varied slickness and a lot of splotchy color variation. Enough for three individual normal-esque skeletons or...something quite unholy.

Lying, and probably disheartened...

Really, really ugly mouth guy...Squid-o-potomus
Whale-fish-blue thing...mostly blue. And yes--there are water critters...in the dirt... It makes so much sense my head spins.

Various Wildlife of Tenous Reality

This is a group shot of the cryptids in my front yard...they're playing... I have individual pictures as well...but loading is not what they like to do...

A Long Hazardous Time At Sea



I went on a long and smelly adventure far away. In a boat. And I came across the odd island of Insignificantia and its small, deformed, shiny inhabitants.







*Note: The "Island" is a part of a fountain my father made that I stealth-appropriated and is also ceramic with underglaze.

Birth Of The Puke Bunnies

A recent painting, a 6x4'...so it's a bit more menacing in person... I used a special glazing on the puke...really makes it shine. I am full of class. And this is how puke bunnies are born--puked out of a tentacle face monster. I am a true romantic.
