This is my personal favorite piece. I'm keeping it for now. I use real sea creatures for this. I make my own molds of their little selves and then I use them as appliques to add to the piece. This piece is called a slab rolled piece. That means instead of throwing it on the wheel, you roll a slab of clay and construct a piece from it. That's the overlap you see on the left, which I personally find attractive.
