Pinch pot teapot

…The giant creeping octopus clinging to the side, the small one on the teapot lid and the large tentacle handle are sculptured by hand…

The beginning of the theme on my teapot. I went with vines. To create them I rolled coils then cut them in half and slipped and scored. The leaves were created by rolling balls then creating a point and flattening them.

My pig teapot before firing. I'm very happy with the way it turned out. I originally planned on making a whale teapot, but it didn't work out so I had to change my idea.
