Hey, I'm just glad that people are talking about it. That's a good thing for an artist. Good or bad, its just good to be known. Although it would have been nice to have more feedback during the auction.

Thanks for the points. It really isn't as asymmetrical as the picture looks. The last picture its upside down which it wasn't made to sit. And its sitting on soft carpet. Its HAndMade so yeah a little honest qualities there. Probably like a Bosko. It was the first to getting back to clay after a couple years. This mug is not like any other mugs out there. I never learned how to make pottery like this and its an exercise that I developed. I'm really surprised no one has asked how I do it. Well, not telling - yet, anyways.

Top heavy , yes, certainly looks top heavy. I like it that way. A living tiki mug drawing maybe. Its not really unstable. It hard to get a good look at this mug cause it has at least three side. Front , back, and the two sides. And then the top and down half of the mug are different.

The next mugs are really smooth for hand-made. And they are super light but stable thickness, just like you would want. And even balance which really isn't a hand-made mug quality. I could draw a picture of what I mean by this if anyone want.

But Hewey honesty is the best policy. Yeah I will give some more ideas about mug making, hand made style later. If anyone would want to hear, It would probably be here.
