my sad boy. he’s personal to me, but I love that he speaks to other people

there’s a few cracks ☹️ though honestly that seems like great symbolism

but his tattoos and piercings turned out great

and the back of his head is suitably horrible. I had originally covered his hands in blood but I wiped it back when I didn’t like it, and it turned into such a nice (and unplanned) effect to just have a little red staining his hands

a precious girl looking for her forever home!

sold

and I say recently heartbroken because

[claypigeonpottery]

added some slip and gave them some texture

the stain I used to make the slip is called Golden Ambrosia, so I’m hoping for a golden yellow but… admittedly I’ve never tested this one lol

newest clay guardian, a dysphoric deer

some angles of this one are great, and then others 🫤 not sure if it actually needs fixing or if I just spent too long staring at it today. 5-6 hours is maybe too much

[claypigeonpottery]

they made it home safely! 😊

MY LITTLE DUDES ARE HERE!!!

I feel I must share this as it has to do with my namesake

Scout’s little face!

she’s a fierce pigeon, and she would destroy us if her beak wasn’t so cute and useless

re: feline bowl's medium: the met's collection page for it does say it's stone! (I in no way intend to suggest that museums never have errors on their collection sites, but stone vs. ceramic really is an easy distinction to make if you get to touch the object)

thanks!

I had thought it was stone but I second guess myself out of correct answers 😅

@citruscity added your ID to the original, thank you!

My box of pottery arrived and I'm so happy!!! I had ordered the original of this selkie mug last year but it didn't survive the shipping trip to socal 😢, however I reached out to @claypigeonpottery when it happened and she VERY kindly offered to remake it for me and try to send it again and I'm ELATED to report it made it here safely this time!

Also included are an array of lovely magnets! I adore the two pink skeleton bunnies, they remind me of me and my sister 🤍🩷

New sculpture.

I almost regret attaching the cup to the legs. It’s just so crisp and the lid turned out so nice. I probably should make a matte white glaze so that the cup looks nice. Consider doing the weathered bronze for the legs. Or maybe just gold but I haven’t tested that glaze yet. I think I’ll make some this morning.

Considering naming it To Go or On the Run
