Sleepy Puck: Two Views

I am not sure why I ended up moving the clay into this shape, into this trickster's face. And, I am not sure why the infamous Puck should be sleeping either.

Wonder what mischief he's dreaming of?

Sculpture mix: freshly formed, drying. The trick now will be to avoid messing about trying to make it better. Sometimes, you do the work, but then just stop; leave well enough alone.

But glazing, now, that deserves a bit of contemplation. Not too much. It is Puck, after all, the spirit of improvisation and play.
