Spacecat Ceramics / Monster Sculpture / Mosslings / Nimbus

Mosslings are little stone monsters that grow moss on themselves and wander the forests collecting what they personally consider to be treasures, like mushrooms and crystals and leaves. They were inspired by artist Amy Breed's rainy walks up Blithedale canyon and into the forests of Marin. They're the most intricate monsters yet, with mineral washes, underglazes, textured glazes, clear glaze, and raw clay. The moss is all handmade along with other decoration, and many of them have rock textures pressed into them.

• Mosslings – Ceramic monster holding fog, all made from clay and the idea of being “collected from Marin Forests”
• Materials – Hand sculpted speckled b-mix, colored underglaze, clear glaze, textured glaze
• Dimensions –8"H x 5-1/4"W x 5"D

A former librarian, Amy Breed turned to art full-time more than 6 years ago. With Spacecat Ceramics, she uses whimsy and imagination to create a variety of objects. Mostly monsters, merging creepiness and cuteness in the best way that makes people happy and lifts their spirit. “I realized that if I made a monster, I could make it look as weird as I wanted. Humans sort of always need to look like humans, but monsters can be anything you can imagine.”
