Sculpted head of a cow-like creature in progress

Now we're cookin

Refining bit by bit

A ceramic work table covered in tools, an anatomy reference book, and a rough sculpt of the head of a cow-like creature

Drafting up this chunker today

Oh man, I wish I could!!

More before long!

I've had to put shipping the EU on hold until I figure out how to deal with the new regulations! ☹️

Someone should definitely make that...

Thank you! I do enjoy all small critters.

Friday at 11am Pacific! All my creature boxes will be available. There's a bunch! Here are some! leslielevings.bigcartel.com

I do!

We're clearly on the same wavelength!

Thank you so much!

I should have spent this time doing actual work, but instead I did this. (The square crop preview cuts off the captions, so you might need to actually click it)

Thanks!!

I've got two cidadas in this batch.

A couple more creature boxes that'll be in the shop soon...

It's a warm brown underglaze, so I'm sort of amazed with how metallic it came out. The other newt looks nearly like iron!

Okay that's all my previews for today, but I have sixteen boxes! Frogs, beetles, cicadas, plus more of the creatures above. In shop soon! It'll just take me a minute to get them all photographed and listed. Will share when I set a shop update time.

Thank you so much!

I used to find toadlets this size and smaller growing up. They were indescribably perfect.

The colors came out exactly as I was hoping.

Oh no, I forgot to mute it. I wanted little ceramic clinks in there but forgot the dryer was going in the back. Whoops.

I think this one is fun.

Thank you!

Aw thanks pal!

All my little creature boxes came back from the kiln today! I'm going to get them in the shop soon, stay tuned. I'll post some little previews in the meantime.

Thanks! Nope, ceramic!
