Samples of a few of Calvin's new glazes.

Now we have the kiln, Calvin has been trying out some of the different glazes he has. Here's three unusual ones he has.

Chav Gorilla

Calvin has finished and glazed his Chav Gorilla. He's got his bright blue baseball cap, fat gold rope, can of lager and his bull terrier straining to rip your insides out.

Working on a commission

Calvin has been working on a commission recently which is quite exciting for him. A lady seen the website and got in contact with him to ask if he could make a sculpture for her.

It'll be finished in a few weeks — it's drying right now —and then I'll put some pictures online of it.

Troop of Gorillas

Calvin has a troop of gorillas in the house at the moment that are at different stages. Some are still needing their first firing, some have been fired but need glazing and fired and some are finished completed and about to be taken up to the gallery.

Nick Park from Aardman

Well now, I found this old press cutting tonight of when Calvin had an article written about him in the Sunday Post whilst he was still at Primary school. Oscar winner Nick Park from Aardman bigging up Calvin's work is pretty smooth!

Dinosaur Plaque

Gorilla brooches

Buttons

Calvin made these as a wee test for the glaze; just to see how it would turn out.

Chav Ape ready for glaze

This has dried out now and is ready for glazing.

Mmm... doughnut.

Here's some pics of the glazed gorilla eating a glazed doughnut.

Teacher's pet

Here's the final gorilla Calvin has done as a gift for his teacher from high school.
