Without a pause, without a sound:
So spins the flying world away!
This clay, well mixed with marl and sand,
Follows the motion of my hand;
For some must follow, and some command,
Though all are made of clay!
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I saw Ken Jensen's pottery in person and knew I wanted to share it with you. Most of these are from his musical sculpture line (the exception being the last work). He says, "They sound like bugles, conch shells, fog horns, and didgeridoos." Thanks, Ken, for giving me permission to post these!

These sculptures actually made me smile. I love the creative spirit behind them (and the fact that they make "music" is great, too).
If I weren't a painter, I'd be a clay sculptor! Love these! The musical ones look so organic and alive. How fun it would be to hear them.
