MadDogMike it was already in the clients hands by then. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with your flower cookie cutter. Clay cutting? Very clever.

===================================

I went to pick photos of the Homer Simpson mug as I progressed and found that 20 photos were the kind that turn sideways here. I posted those on facebook and I'm posting those that work on here. So a lot of steps are missing in this post. This mug took a long time and at the end weighed around 5 pounds!

I would look at the mug and then at the photo and then I would add clay in sheets.
With this one I needed the top rim to lean out like his head.

With that accomplished I moved down to the next piece.

I cut a piece for the center of the forehead.

This is where facebook has more photos of the work. Just go to Wendy Cevola if you need to be friended just request it.

So many weeks later this is what has been accomplished.

My client also sent me a Chi pet and a statue of Homer to work from.

I continued to fine tune and to smooth all the parts that were added.

More tomorrow.

======================================

RVICTOR I've made a lot of progress on your design. When I finish off Homer I'll be posting your mug photos.

Cheers and Happy Holidays, Wendy
