Jesse Davis, Clay Wanderer
Clay Wanderer creates fun and functional ceramics for special days and every day. The majority of making time is spent detailing intricate surfaces. Every image and motif is hand-drawn and carved.

Tonight's mint sleepytime tea is brewed in a mug from my first series outside of school. Although I loved carving, I felt inlay was more cost efficient. So I made oodles of tattooed bodacious babes. Especially fond of the rockabilly ruffle panties. I'm glad I set her aside for myself.
