A mysterious parcel arrived for me a few days ago. It was a gift from my daughter in Sydney and contained a big lump of mud! It was a DIY pottery set. Such fun!
This morning I cleared the decks and decided to have a play with the clay. Not content with making a simple pot I decided to sculpt a hare. I probably should have chosen a pot.
My weakness is impatience. I ought to have studied several drawings of the anatomy of a hare before I started but I was keen to get stuck in. So my hare’s head is rather too big for his body. And the ears kept flopping over. He looks rather more like a long eared dog than a star gazing hare.

I don’t have a kiln so it will take several days to dry. I rather suspect his ears might drop off when I take the wires out. But yes, it was fun and he is definitely one of a kind.
