This one is a creative gift from us (me and Sis) to the tattoo artist who painted the cutest otters in the world on our skin during our last trip to Portugal.

Technically it's quite simple to mold. One needs a sketch that is transferred by tracing from paper onto a flat smooth layer of clay. Afterwards the section borders are formed made of thin clay cords. When the model dries a bit, I brushed it with a touch of water to make its surface smooth.

That's it! The glaze still plays a little at the borders, however within each section its color is uniformly white.

Sent with a FRAGIL note on the envelope. Hope it serves the new owner well!
