Kiln overfired. Evaulating whether it's worth trying to recreate these pieces and then ... the joy of smashing them out by the dumpster.

Secret Confession: overfiring makes them super strong and even if I try to smash them out by the dumpster, there's a chance they'll bounce off the sides and go to the landfill intact.

One of several mushroom stamps I made a few years ago, used here to decorate a mug.

Added some collaged features. The eyes and nose are from a drawing of Karl Marx and the mouth is from an anatomical diagram.

Uploaded this to Dall-E 2 and had it produce variations.

Selected this one to reinterpret in clay.

Also drawing from this one for the realistic gills.

Several iterations of sketches:
