"2045" at exhibition

This is my entry in the 49th Port Hacking Potters Competition.

It is my response to global warming... Titled "2045" the globe and base are wheel thrown, the pig is hand formed and I have used various glazes to depict the possible effects global warming will have on the planet.

"2045" by Anna Ryland. Wheel thrown and handformed with multiple glazes. Stoneware clay and glazes. 16.5cmH x 12cmW (2016).

Hi Elephant's Child.. thank you so much... throwing a closed globe like that is a bit tricky and I am very happy with the result of the glazing
