Ideas for pots

I love this bowl made out of blown glass. Its a shell.

These are great and look like baskets

I love this one as an idea for a cake stand. I would perhaps choose a different holder - like an elephant with more legs and its trunk up.

Gecko Teapot


Large Urn

The making of a large urn by handbuilding and wheelwork at Sydney Uni Ceramics Dungeon.




Drying out with a blowtorch for stability

Throwing the top 

Sanding the ribs of the pot and adding handles
The final pot. Note the naked clay lady giving birth.

Final piece glazed with... a thousand glazes!

My next Dali sculpture

Im going to try to make a very light (hollow) elephant with a little candle holder on top and spindle legs that have to be joined after firing - with Araldite of course. I love the idea of having a dainty elephant sculpture in my house.
