Really interesting piece, quite bio-mechanical, and I love the finish.

Pretty cool stuff, to say the least.
I'd like to know how big these are, it's hard to tell from the picture. And what's the thing of them three being called 'vessels'? It would be interesting to hear, since you probably have invested some thought into them.

They're about 15 inches tall. I call them vessels, because they represent containers, but not of liquids (notice the holes, fake wounds, entire vessels split down the middle etc.) but of spirit, of unity, of longevity. Hope that helps!

woah!
not only is your concept great, but the choices in glazing really make it a fantastic piece.

Thank you so much! FINALLY somebody notices my clay pieces!!!

Yeah, the glazing was a pain-I applied a bit too much so it's running a little bit in places, but I still like the way it came out.

I'm also a nut for digging into the clay and carving lines, shapes, etc. I think I got that from my abstract paintings...

Thanks again for the comment! It's appreciated!
