Custom Glaze on Earthenware Ceramic 4" x 4.5" x 1.25" Private Collection
Dante - sculpted by Sarah Minkieqicz-Breunig & produced in earthenware ceramic by Joan Berkowitz of Pour Horse Pottery, this large mini boy stands 4" tall by 4.5 inches long. A fairly rare piece due to the difficulty Joan had in producing them and high breakage. I have custom glazed this boy for a client to a sooty dappled buckskin tobiano after a reference photo she sent to me. He is completed using underglazes with satin clear glaze, high gloss eyes and hooves with final color pushed with overglazes. I also made him a glossy black base so he won't be so easy to knock over and break. All worked fired in the kiln to Orton cones 04 to 016. Completed March 2025.
