Hand #6! I’m thinking I might stop at 6 and just start slip casting these, I’m really looking forward to getting this rather ambitious work done. Next step is slip-casting 200-300 of them, then pit-firing them.

Hand 5 of 8! They’re sculptures being made into slip-cast molds. I’ll take 200-300 casts and they will hang on the wall as if they are emerging from the wall. I’m casting them in local terra cotta clay I’ve been processing, and will pit fire them.

My mold making process in a too small too messy but warm kitchen table. I feel like my dedication to the work shines through the frustration of not having a proper studio. Or even a real house.

Here’s a work in progress for the day. This is hand 2 of 8 that I’m planning on making plaster molds for ceramic slip casting. My goal for February is to get these molds finished. Still gotta work out some lumps.

Another work in progress. I’m planning on painting this one, especially the eye, so it looks alive and 1/2 content.

I’m not sure how I feel about it right now, when I conceived it I felt like I was trying to stay positive while also staring blankly into the void.

These two are meant to be hanged together the piece is called Partners. The spikes were meant to represent externalized agression and internalized aggression, and how relationship patterns can be imbalanced and do damage.

This is a work in progress. I’m planning on glazing this piece and using a gold overglaze for the folded section in the middle. It’s part of a series of masks I started this winter.
