Stingray ceramic

Clay art

Beautiful Brass Stingray Statue

A bit of a different piece, this one’s made from clay! Aside from painting and drawing, I have recently gotten into playing around with pottery and clay. Of course, I chose to create a manta ray - my fave animal ;) Thoughts on this one? 🌊 #clay #pottery #mantaray #claymantaray #stingray #matte #clayart #potteryart #oceananimal #marine #artwork #marineart #sea #artist #youngartist #nature

Ceramics are probably the most common of all art forms to have emerged from human history and are one of the oldest inventions. The first evidence of human-made ceramics dates back to at least 24,000 years BC! While the technology and applications have steadily increased, the use of this form of art stayed pretty much the same. Just like before, we make use of ceramics as containers for water and food, art objects, tiles and bricks and so on.
