Snake Mug

This mug was the third project given to my ceramics class and took me almost three months to finish. I knew I wanted to make it look cartoonish with a nice glossy finish so a couple weeks went by so I could use the low fire glazes for my mug. This was my first project using low fire glaze so I didn't really know how to make it perfect. after it came out of the glaze firing, I realized that it needed more paint, so I sent it back in but i forgot to gloss the inside with clear glaze so my Snake Mug had to go into the kiln a third time. When it finally came out, I was very happy with what I created and i think it is probably the most useful ceramic piece i have made so far.
