Clay Penguin
This little penguin is one of my favorite creations. He’s a little raw and unfinished but it was one of my first clay projects so I’m always a little surprised that he looks as cute as he does.
I crafted him during a visit to the children’s museum with my niece and nephew. I’m not exactly sure about the type of clay but it had a mud-like consistency (and color) and hardened as it dried. I mostly used my hands and some simple shaping tools (kid-friendly, I guess).
Sadly, his right flipper broke off in an incident with little curious fingers but it reattached just fine with my trusty glue gun.
