Hey look, I made something functional! This jelly fish planter is slab built by hand . I use a stamp that I carved for the jelly fish The rock feet are hand carved and attached individually. These are sturdy little planters that sit neatly on their rock feet. Only a couple of these forms created with different designs but ,definitely something I will revisit. I only made one of these jelly planters so far, and they are very time consuming but as with all clay, I loved making them.
Process:
Each pot is handmade here at Stardust Clayworks. These are slab built so I roll out a slab, stamp with my custom carved stamps. Join outlet the form into a planter, vessel ,cup etc. Attach the rocks which I typically form prior and set aside overnight in a damp box so the piece can become ready for the sculpting on the rocks. Texturize the rocks, clean things up and set out to dry. These get a fire, stain ,glaze and final fire upon completion.
