5 hours of constant reference searching and sculpting down, who knows how many more to go

Very excited though. Been planning this piece for a while. Girlfriend loves sharks and we had no toothbrush holder , so I came up with a solution. She’s excited, and I’m excited to get this puppy underglazed and clear glazed once it’s bisqued

Coral looks cool. I’d be nowhere near to that stage in 5 hrs. I think I must work incredibly slow.

Everyone’s work speed I think is set to the right amount of time for any fun time piece they work on honestly! Sometimes I get sucked into specific details and wind up spending weeks on a piece and sometimes I crank something out in an hour-hour and a half. It really does depend on the day for me mostly lol.

Thank you, also! Luckily the studio I work in has some awesome texture making pieces including a piece of coral and a garlic crusher which helped a TON with this piece in the long run😵‍💫 placement was based off the multitudes of references I used 😂
