new figural pieces

new figural pieces

The first piece is an ode to the fore runner of our fast food nation, the drive-up restaurant waitress. Here she is pictured in all her roller skating glory, delivering to your overweight belly a healthy meal of about 50 burgers, hotdogs, fries and sodas. MMMMMMMMMM.....enjoy. 10.5" tall

The second piece is pretty self explanatory. Gas mask, AK47, tattered black flag, 9 oil barrels and 11 bombs. 20" tall

This flower is about 15" tall, I have been keeping these smaller lately to avoid panic when they don't fit in the kiln. The flower itself is made from cobalt tubing backed with white powder and silver strike 5 on it's backside. The foot is mostly amazon bronze.
