As an elementary art teacher I often had my students make clay animals.
It feels like I made hundreds or maybe thousands of them as samples over
the course of my career. I did not really occur to me until recently to
start adding these little animal sculptures to my thrown pots. They are
fun to make and give the pots a quirky, whimsical personality. Below
are some animal jars I made for some friends of mine. These are all fired to cone 10 in my gas kiln with Winokur matte glaze on them.
