Can I see a video of the process behind this craft sculpture?
Absolutely, I’d be happy to share that with you! I actually have a short video that documents the entire journey of this craft sculpture—from a simple block of raw material to a finished, textured piece. In the video, you’ll see me first sketching the design and then carefully shaping the clay with my hands and small carving tools.
The process is surprisingly meditative: there’s a part where I apply layers of slip and textured glaze, building up the surface little by little. My favorite moment is when the piece enters the kiln as a rough form and emerges with a glossy, fire-kissed finish.
If you’re curious about the exact methods—like how I achieve those smooth curves or that matte patina—the video cuts to close-up angles that make every swipe and press easy to follow. It’s not a polished production, but it’s honest and shows the real messiness and joy of creating. Want me to send you the link or upload it here?
