i need an idea. for ceramics we are creating a giant totem pole of human and animal heads. i doubt i could make a good human head, but are there any ideas for an animal i could make? not too hard either. i think we are only doing it this week. thank you!
I love working with ceramics. If I were you, I'd try making a bird. A beak is all you really need and shouldn't be too hard to make. It will also be easy to determine what kind of animal it will be. What I would consider doing is finding pictures online of an animal with a front and side profile view of it and build it from there. Good luck!
For the glazing you could layer assorted glaze which motives it to create a dripping result. Or attempt dairy queen, an thought i learnt from potter Kristen Keiffer, you hold on with and layer a slip over un-bisqued clay, so as that that's thick (do not comfortable out the comb strokes), it creates a outstanding organic and organic look i could not upload any photos
