A small deer-like creature sits on the edge of something black, in front of a black background. He appears to be wearing a chain-like shirt. One hand is raised and waving, while the same leg is kicking forward. He is smiling with a small tongue hanging out. He has two anglers, covered in very subtle glaze dots. His general color palette is brown.

Day 10! This is my little forest spirit for Battersea park, and my first London kiln guardian. He sold not too long ago.
Side-note! I’m moving, so I got very distracted with that for a while (and will be for a while longer still) but! Finally I’m feeling up to posting! #20pots #ceramics #art

A sculpture in front of a concrete wall. The sculpture appears to be emerging from the ground. The head is the only discernible part of its form. The head is a skull, seemingly a mix between a canine and deer skull, with 5 pronged antlers. It is stoneware, rubbed with oxides and black underglaze, with spot glazing in the form of metallic tips to the antlers, and tears from the eyes, mouth, and nose.

A sculpture is viewed from the front on a white background. The sculpture is a furry creature, with large round red eyes and dirty greenish yellow fur. One leg is sticking forward, and it is balancing one arm on the other leg. Its other arm is being used for balance, almost as if it was in the process of standing up after being pushed over.

The face and torso of a sculpture, in a dark setting surrounded by other sculptures. The face has large red eyes (resembling those of a bush baby), a humanoid nose and lips, and round ears on the side of its head. It is furry, the fur a dirty greenish yellow. This is a front view.

This piece was originally made at the start of my masters in 2023, though I didn’t glaze it until 2024. I call him the Filthy House Spirit, he was inspired by one of my close friends experiences in her childhood home #ceramics #art #folklore #fantasy #sculpture

Day 3 of #20pots !
Another older set of pieces! These were made as a gift for my sibling, who was my FMA watching buddy as kids. I’m hoping to incorporate some more nostalgic media in my pieces once I’m back making functional ware! #fullmetalalchemist #ceramics #art #anime

A mug is set on a mirror, in nature. The grass around it is reflected. The mug is white, with a barn owl painted on it and an orange interior.

A mug, sitting on a rock in nature. The handle is to the left, showing the front of the mug. The mug has a blue interior. The surface is decorated using sgraffito to have Alice from Alice in wonderland, and some large mushrooms.

I saw some people doing #20pots on here, where you post 20 pots for 20 days, and thought I’d join in!
Here is Day 1! Mine aren’t all going to be pots, but I thought I’d start it off with an older mug! #ceramics #fantasy #mug #sgraffito #art

An image of a studio shelf, with some ceramic art. There is a large snake sculpture, partially finished, in the upper right. A small green snake sculpture sits on top of it. The rest of the space has coasters and trivets, all with black and white sgraffito. The coaster on top has the image of a raven. The other images are obscured

Gilded axolotl!
I love making large scale pieces/series of work, but when it comes to just making for the joy of it, I often end up creating lil guys. #axolotl #art #porcelain #ceramic #sculpture #luster

A sculpture being held by a persons left hand in a studio setting. The sculpture is pure porcelain white, and resembles a dragon with a gaping maw

A sculpture on a white background. The sculpture is the head and upper portion of the neck of an owl. It most closely resembles a barn owl. The eyes are dark brown, the beak is gold, the coloration is made using rust red iron.
