"Flying Banana Dog," USA, underglazes, glazes and enamel paint on slip-cast earthenware, approximately 4" in height, private collection
This figurine was originally created in painted and glued plastic parts for "The Fruity Show." I later illustrated and wrote a short blurb in my "Let There Be Fruit" Sketchbook Project journal. The last iteration was created from slip-cast ceramic molds.
