I felt like I needed to make something where I really committed to some bright colors.

Not sure if I like it when the entire piece is painted.  I’m so fond of the raw clay texture – seems a shame not to have it somewhere.

I’ve been working on a  packaging solution for the limited edition pieces.  It took me a long time to decide on the right box size and foam type -  I’m happy with this.  Looks fairly clean and they should be well protected during delivery.  “TRIANGLENOSE” website/on-line store coming soon!

Finished these this weekend.  Thanks to the Yost workshop for making the bases!

Some cats I just finished putting together. After they’re fired they’ll be black with colored stripes, little white eyes and I’ll probably paint the noses a fun color.

I threw “El Muerto” here together this morning.

White slip on black clay.

He’ll look pretty much the same after he’s fired – the dark areas will turn black and I’ll paint in some little white teeth.

Feliz Dia De Los Muertos.

in progress clay stuff.

Aunt Doris’ friend Mary butchered my last post – here’s the result – a fine companion for his bird cousin. Can you tell which piece she left out?

Clay sculptures about 8″ high.
