I make a lot of pottery with elephants, and my best selling item of the last 25 years is an elephant mug, trunk down as the handle. Well, sure, yes, from time to time I make that trunk UP in a lucky curve :) #art#mastoart#clay#ceramics#pottery
I work at home as an artist and have three beagles, therefore everybody asks me to babysit their dogs. Today: the corgi puppy #dogs#dogsofmastodon#corgis
Like I was saying yesterday, there is cute, then make it smaller, and it is cutter! Small dogs on new mugs that I made :) #art#mastoart#clay#pottery#ceramics
Was fiddling around with a new pair of glaze schemes and also thinking that pear shaped makes a good mug style...just out of my kiln :) #art#mastoart#pottery#ceramics#clay
A raw, unfired teapot I just finished: the thing that is on my mind is how can you take a fully functional item and add some fun to it, which doesn't reduce the practical and utilitarian function of it? So, a teapot with some dogs formed on the sides, just a globe, handle, spout and lid :) #art#mastoart#ceramics#pottery#clay
A new mug that I made, dinosaur or dragon. When I talk to my friends, we all agree that the best thing about making a dragon is that there are no rules! Plus you can call some a dinosaur or simply a monster--you can please anybody :) #art#mastoart#clay#ceramics#pottery
I had an idea to try (swooping line), and so was fiddling around and made these mugs. The glaze is from my slop bucket--as in, every drip and washed brush from glazing is saved, and voila! This fun glaze consisting of the dregs of 12 different glazes #clay#ceramics#pottery#art#mastoart
