Jabba the Hutt

In my pottery class one of the assignments was to create a pinch pot deity. So after browsing online for ideas I came across Jabba the Hutt. It was the winner. Pinch pot is a technique were you pinch clay with your hands to form a bowl shape. I created two bowls and then scored the tops. I connected the two bowls with slip and proceeded to add arms, head, and tail. The arms and tail are flat sheets of clay molded into a pipe like form. After it was fired I painted it with acrylic paints.
