stick figure model of my husband on the beach

I hated the process of doing this. OK I quite like the way it looks, but the assembly and then clothing of the figure was just to hurried for my somewhat deliberate disposition.

We had to create a skeleton figure - with a trunk, hips shoulders arms and legs as well as a head, then clothe it with pieces which had to remain open to the air as much as possible (for air to escape while firing). The clay had to be used quite thin for the clothing which meant you had to work fast as thin clay dries faster and starts cracking up when you drape it into position.
