Concept sketch for a tall, slender hydria-like form. I've made ram's horns before but have never used them for handles...we'll just have to see how that works out. Construction of this piece will probably follow the following sequence:

  • Build all 3 horns
  • Build hooves-feet
  • Build 3-D Ram head
  • Wheel throw 20" lower portion of the form
  • Wheel throw the top 5" of the form
  • Assemble top & bottom - allow to reach soft-leather-hard
  • Alter container to receive ram's head and horns
  • Construct head/horns/feet and rough-in line work
  • Apply slip for sgraffito areas
  • Define/complete carving & textures
  • Do sgraffito work
  • Seal/cover and dry slowly

Thanks for the encouragement, Joseph.  I started on the tough parts (horns & head) this morning...the assembly will definitely be a stretch.
