Hello, Said the Baby Cylinder People

Here are some individual portraits of baby cylinder people made in February 2019.

Terra cotta clay, fired at cone 06, colored with Velvet underglazes. Each one is 4″ tall, more or less.

  Thank you. They are cheerful little guys and I try always to give them a pleasant or quirky look to get this response. !

  I love making them and their simple shapes and faces, plus all that color!

  Thank you. I try to make them look like they are listening, in a friendly way. I’ve made figurines with their arms in other positions, but for these, I think this gives them a welcoming mood, I am glad you saw that.
