7.75" x 3.75" x 3"

He's been through the fire and come out on the other side.  I have always had a thing for gnomes and fairy tale creatures. When reality becomes too much,  I retreat into my rich imaginary world.

Raku is a special firing process involving oxygen reduction. After being bisque-fired, glazed with specially formulated glazes, then heated again to 1850°, this piece was tossed red-hot into a reduction chamber.  Where it was engulfed by hot flames, the color is different than the areas that were not touched.  The process is chaotic and unpredictable, resulting in amazing, magical color combinations. This living surface will change with time.  Keep this away from the sun to keep it as bright as long as possible.
