100 Jugs / 120 Days: #9, #8, #7



#9. I tried to combine a few of the things I've been doing recently: careful scuplture, found objects, pupils.  The left horn is a pair of porcelain legs a customer gave me.  The left ear is a piece of pottery I found in a creek in downtown Greenville.  The teeth are rocks and a piece of porcelain.  There's a bit of glass in the neck of the jug.


#8. I wanted to make a rock-eyed jug that'd be functional, so I tried the clay grips.  The blue glass is from a different trip to the same creek downtown.

#7. I'd sculpted the eyes as a demonstration for some friends.  I liked the mouthless look. . . .
