Cretaceous Carapace Ceramic Art Pottery Bowl by Michael W. Moses, Ocean Springs, Mississippi

This is my Cretaceous Carapace Bowl. This one looks as if it might have been found on the glittering white sands of some warm exotic ancient sea.  Reminiscent of the shell from some ancient or alien sea life this art pottery bowl is approximately 6 inches long and about 4 inches wide and around 3½ inches tall and packs a lot of great eye appeal.  I was very pleased with how vividly the colors came out on this hand sculpted piece of art pottery. This piece is now available at South Coast Antiques & Gallery in Ocean Springs, MS or through my online Etsy shop!

Symbiosis Ceramic Art Pottery Vase by Michael W. Moses

Symbiosis Ceramic Art Pottery Vase by Michael W. Moses 

This one I call the Symbiosis Vase.  This is a very special piece of ceramic art pottery that I have hand sculpted to show the truly symbiotic relationship that not only exists in nature but also among friends. This piece shows three totally unique entities that have bonded together against all odds and are living a happily contented life together. They will stick through it all and press on with things using each other as a support against the savage harsh world around them. Basically best friends forever, so to speak.

I have, as always, crafted this boldly colored work of ceramic art pottery by hand and lavishly layered the underglaze paints to give the piece that little extra that makes it truly stand out. 

This is another one of those pieces that photographs just do not show off very well. The colors on this work fairly well glow and the dark luster is just wonderful. It really has to be seen to be fully appreciated.

I believe this to be one of my best and most exciting works of ceramic art pottery to date.

A New Ceramic Art Pottery Work by Michael W. Moses at South Coast Antiques & Gallery in Ocean Springs, MS.

This is a new piece that I call the Domed Claw Reliquary.  This is a small, many clawed ceramic art pottery base that has a great little tubular dome.  I made it to specifically hold an item of either great interest or value or maybe both! Imagine if you will, maybe an outrageous piece of alien like jewelry, or maybe some exotic prop specimen that one might see on a blog like Propnomicon.  The base measures approximately 5 inches by 5 inches and is about 3¼ inches tall.  With the dome in place this piece is around 6¼ inches tall. There is just that one perfect specimen that will fit perfectly beneath this little dome I guess I will know it when I see it.
