The Dread Dude

I am working on a small sculpture that I am calling the Dread Dude. I sat down with a block of clay with the intention to sculpt a human head with a big nose and let my creative energy flow. This sculpture has dreadlocks, guaged ears, a big nose and bags under his eyes. This is my  first attempt to add texture to the skin and I am interested to see how it looks after glazing. I covered this piece with plastic to encourage even distribution of moisture during drying stage to prevent cracks.
