Sold Two Ceramic Art Pottery StarFish bowls by Michael W. Moses

Well, I am pleased to tell you that I sold two pieces of my ceramic art pottery  a couple of days back.  The first piece was featured in my first post on this blog back on December 3, 2010, and is called "EEEEWWW! Save Us From the Oil!".  This piece was made in remembrance of the BP oil spill.

 The second piece that was sold was my "Taking it Easy StarFish Bowl".  This piece features a lazy little starfish basking in the early morning sun, playfully balancing a genuine cultured pearl as an adornment on the very center of it's body.  Maybe it will play a quick game of hacky sack with the pearl, or maybe have it for a light snack?

Both pieces were sold to a very nice woman from the Los Angeles area for her circa 1930's beach house.

New Art Pottery, Night Time Feeding Frenzy Bowl by Michael W.Moses

I did  a post on Wednesday, August 31, 2011 showing a new starfish bowl that I had just painted. It has been fired and is ready to be shown! So here it is.

New Starfish Bowl by Michael W. Moses

The bowl portion of this piece is painted like smooth polished sea stone on the outside and has a blue on white interior design with a nice thick shiny glaze. The Starfish is Matt glazed and has individually applied (one at a time) points! The starfish has a rough texture that is actually reminiscent of a real starfish.

Because of the interior design I call this piece "Night Time Feeding Frenzy". This new work of ceramic art pottery is now on view at South Coast Antiques & Gallery in Ocean Springs, MS.
