Ceramics: King of the Forest

I finished my lynx mask back in December, but I just finally got around to hanging it on the wall and taking photos of the finished product. He is on our living room wall looking over his domain. Click here and here to see his earlier stages.

Abe is slightly disturbed that I have been collecting the whiskers our cat, Paws, sheds and sticking them in the lynx mask, but I am an artist! (I need to think of a good artist b.s. line about mixing reality with inanimate objects.)

The fact is that I just think it's kind of awesome- and I'm a crazy cat lady and there's nothing I can do to control myself.
