Clay fantasy animals - some work in progress
A clay sculpture made from air-dry clay by a 7 year old. The body is made out of a closed pinch pot (it is hollow in the centre to help with drying). The head and eyes are made from balls of clay, and the horns made from rolled "snakes" of clay.
A horned fantasy dog sculpture in the background by another 7 year-old.
