FOOL MASK (GITM BY @venomous-qwille)

Handbuilt porcelain with slip, overglaze, glaze, and gold lustre accents. Paint and lacquer detailing added post fire. Handsewn fool's cap and bells added post fire.

This mask is a part of a (loosely connected) mask series, all hand-built and fired using a range of different temperatures and techniques.

My favourite mask to date, Fool from Ghost in the Machine by the wonderful @venomous-qwille !! GITM is absolutely incredible and I cannot put into words eloquently how much I adore it and Fool so instead I made this mask! Hi!

My word was this mask a struggle to make. The mask itself is entirely one piece, and entirely porcelain!! That's right, those long thin rays are solid porcelain!! The eyes and tips of the blades are done in 22 carat gold lustre. All colouring save for the black and the satin sections of darker red on the face were done with only slips and underglazes. The red colour was correct without the paint, but I thought a contrast from the rest of the gloss would look nice :)

Made to scale, the mask measures 50.8x60.96cm without the hat, and 50.8x116.84cm with it! (20x24in without hat, 20x46in including hat). He is Large, but turned out absolutely lovely and I send my many many thanks to the kiln gods for producing him unscathed.

(naku & wall for scale)

(he's so big guys i have large walls (the top of my head is only slightly above the top of the bookcase beneath him) look at him at the wall it's nuts)

#OMGGG IT TURNED OUT SO BEAUTIFUL #THE COLORS ARE SO LOVELY!! AND ALL THE DETAILS OF THE RAYS AND FACE AAAHHHHHH #AND ITS PORCELAIN?!?!?! HOWWW #thats incredible #other's art #gitm

I know writers like this, but fanartists, genuine question:

Asking this genuinely because some times I DO want to leave nice comments about art I found pretty, but usually don't since I've found it's not really the culture around fanart as opposed to fanfics.

Please reblog because it's been bothering me.

#I LOVE READING THEM PLSSSSS #i read every single one of them and they make me so happy #i also try to leave them for other's art cos its just nice to leave positive comments; maybe you make that person's day :D #polls

Still trying to find my art style and got inspired by another incredible artist on here (couldn't find them again cuz I forgot to follow! :(( ) so I doodled a more sinister Sun/Moon (Sun switching to Moon-)

He's ok (he's not ok)

Good sleep schedule = majority of the time, you get a consistent 5-8hrs of sleep at a regular time of day

Abysmal sleep schedule = none of the above

#slight sun bias #i fail too much at consitency for it to be “good” as a sleep schedule #polls
