  2. what are you using for the moulds? are they gourds or something? great idea. could you use them as moulds directly too? i guess it would take longer for the clay to dry and shrink away ... i dig those horses too. like cave drawings!

  3. Georgia, yes, they are gourds from my farm. I have tried using the outside shell as a hump mold form but the hard shell and clay stick quite a bit and it does take forever to dry. This hump mold was made from the textured inside so I'm curious how the texture looks on a bowl in a wood firing!

    Thanks for the compliments!
