Happy Birthday Bruno!

Today is Bruno's birthday and he is turning five. Bruno currently lives with Denny's parents in Nevada and we miss him so much. He is never too tired to play a nice game of tug-of-war or "superfast!" :) Have a big piece of cake for us and a wonderful birthday Boon Dog! We love you! (and Nitara too!)

Pinch Pot

This is a picture of our first project, a pinch pot. Everyone starts out with a ball of clay and have to "pinch" it into a pot. You can make it look any way you want it. Some made theirs look like a face while others, like me, made theirs look a little diffrent. Its suppose to be a mouth with teeth and a tounge sticking out. Pretty cool, huh? There will also be an update of the glaze/paint job.

More Of Ashley's Art Work

This one is inspired from a great artist. Jhonen Vasquez has created many brilliant characters like the two put together in this 1/2 and 1/2 mask. The comic-book-style series is called Johnny The Homicidal Maniac. On the right is a boy named Squee who is friends with his homicidal neighbor Johnny. On the left is Squee's bear named Shmee. In the Squee series, you learn that Shmee........ well, if I told you then it would ruin the suprise and meaning behind the mask. If you want to know more, check out the book. Again, this piece is not yet finished, but I will be painting it with acrilic paint. My favorite!

Ashley's Art Work

This semester I'm taking a ceramics class at Los Medanos community college. I have taken art for six years now and I love it. This is a picture of a mask that I did for a project. Its a Devil mask from Japan, or supposed to be. This mask hasn't been glazed yet but once it is, there will be a new picture.
