Peter

Meet Peter

Peter is currently going through a midlife crisis. He feels very overworked and under paid, his last three vacation requests were denied and his boss is refusing to pay him overtime. He’s considering quitting and pursuing his passion in glass blowing.

This piece of art starts as a ball of clay, it is then shaped, trimmed, handled and once dry I hand carved the images into the mug using a variety of carving tools. Each piece takes between 3 - 6 weeks to make and is fired in a kiln three times. I use a translucent white porcelain.  If you are like me, and enjoy sitting in the sun while you have your morning coffee, you will notice that the sun shines through the body of the mug, it just makes the morning extra beautiful.
