These playful pups are rendered in Chatterley's signature style, hand built in clay, high fired, and crater glazed for a wonderfully primitive appearance, designed to engage the viewer on an almost human level. Equally at home indoors or outdoors. Sold individually.

About this Artist

Mark Chatterley

"I try to make visual speed bumps so that you have to slow down when viewing my work."

Sculptor Mark Chatterley is interested in the dream world, the real world, and the place that exists in between. Sculpting animals that directly engage the viewer on an almost human level, Chatterley individually creates each clay sculpture from the bottom up. Chatterley starts with an eight inch slab of clay and slowly builds his forms, allowing each section to set up before the next slab is attached. It can take the artist several weeks to build each figure. His bubbly and bumpy surfaces are created with a signature crater glaze that the artist has developed. As Chatterley says, "They are like dug up relics of a time to come." Each piece is fired twice with the second firing hot enough to vitrify the clay, allowing the sculptures to live outside year round.

Fabulous, 100 times over and over...
These precious dogs guard our pool outdoors, keeping watch. They are heavy so I don't worry about our real dogs knocking them over. They are exactly like the picture but even better because in the picture you can't imagine the "finish" on these pets. It is a rough texture, beautiful blue surface that is clearly hand made. They are a show stopper and many people comment on them finding them intriguing. I couldn't be happier. I was surprised when the artist sent a blue ceramic ball along with my order of two different dogs. It makes the setting even more wonderful. Kudos to the artist and his sense of humor.
