The Fussy Clay: mould, mould, mould to forms


Hi everyone, today I would like to share with you some of the little clay works I did some time ago. The main method to form these little darlings was by combining two clay pots together to form into a sphere and beating them into shapes with a spatula. Patterns are formed using various carving and moulding tools. My favourite was the lone clay work featured on the left. It was inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's painting, 'Starry, starry night'. Did you notice that the winding tentacles-lookalike parts on top were moulded after the cypress tree in the painting?  =)
