Thanks Sven! You can see that guy's blue cousin here - I got it at a local garage sale but unfortunately it is glued together from several broken pieces, so I was stoked to get a new one in one piece and with the mystery elixir still inside! I have another removable-head model here from a different mold and in a more conventional glaze.
I haven't read "Carved Histories" (yet- it is on my to buy list), but am reading "The Carver and the Artist" right now, which studies the intersection of 20th century modernist art and Maori traditional carving. There are so many good books being published here these days that I just can't keep up with them!
