I got a crazy idea and pursued it. I had a rubber mold of a wolf bio--not a great mold but usable. I took it to a friend of mine who teaches ceramics classes and we started working on this idea to do a bio in ceramic. So we gave it a shot-- We pressed the clay into the rubber bio mold, let it dry and pulled it out and fired it. Took a lot of time as when the clay dried due to the uneven shape of the bio, it cracked all over the place. We finally got a good one. After bisque firing we then did a RAKU fire. Here it is for your viewing pleasure. The results can be unpredictable. The pics really dont show the rich metallic tones that came out. I will be picking it up tomorrow and take some better pics.
I have an idea that I will throw out there later on after I see this one and another one we are doing.
anyway-- on to it ---this is fresh out of the fire and will look better once it has cooled and been wiped down.
Sorry about this being sideways-- if anyone can rotate it for me that would rock!!!
