Animal

This experiment was to practice merging two pinch pots. The project was to create an animal. I made a boar.
The natural aspect of the clay and animals made so I was able to show a bit of curviture/flow to the animal, although the stains & glazes didn't turn out as well as I'd have liked.

The white smudges are the crackle lichen glaze, which are over smudged browns and black near the eyes.
The tuft of hair along the spine I intended to use the needle tool on, to make it look more hair like, but by the point I came in to work on it, it was too dry.
