I have three containers of ceramic randoms.
Junk piles where ideas go to die.
An octopus with three legs, half a moon and a freaky pumpkin.
Some are ideas that didn’t work in practice, some just came out odd. I had an idea to make fridge magnets that were little personal portraits. You could change your hair do and outfit like the paper cut out dolls I enjoyed as a kid. In reality, the magnets didn’t hold and it all fell off. I found these bits and started painting them in watercolours.
I really like the outcome and I’m figuring a way to make them into a something. I like drawing and often my doodles come out in my work with clay. There portraits are like my illustration/stoneware mash up.
Now, what to do with that octopus….
