bana man 

clay 

This project was for the intro to Ceramics II, where we had to make anything. I decided to make a bana(na) man with large legs and one arm. I was going to make two arms but it dried out before I could add another. 

It's made from clay and glaze, I didn't start with a sketch or anything. I just kind of let whatever shapes stand out to me stand out, and then I'd let the idea come to me that way. 

I like how this came out, I wish I could have added another arm, then it would probably be better balanced. The glaze didn't come out how I expected, I wish it didn't melt as much as it did.
