This is a view from above, showing the holes for the candles.  This menorah was constructed while the clay slabs were a little too soft.  Some of the pieces are warped and the slabs don't fit together that well.

Yesterday I went to a raku firing at the pottery studio.  I fired two clay brains.

This is the brain glowing eerily in the gas kiln:

These are the objects taking up space on my closet shelf at present:
 
The coil pot experimentation continues.

Someone bought the last of my cat columns.  I intended to make another one and came up with this thing instead.
