I have begun creating a collection of small size fish heads to be fired in different atmospheres. The first group were fired in the Corning Anagama. Others have been fired in Carl Shanahan's Soda kiln. Most recently I have been firing some in the SUNY, Fredonia Raku kiln. Another group swam in the heat of Norm Wheeler's Train kiln at his studio in the Georgian Bay, Ontario. I will add to this album as other kilns are used. These small forms, 5" to 8" long are pure inventions. They continue my interest suggesting personality and attitude and humor in a small ceramic art form. These pieces are designed to either hang on the wall or sit on a table or desk. Since they are most effective in groupings, I invite collectors to start a school of their own! The Minis range in price from $50 to $100 when purchased directly from me.
