Cthulhu Idol Figures from 2004

I started working with clay in 2004 and these are three crude Cthulhu Idol Figures I made around that time.  The stone gray Cthulhu Idol is one of the very few pieces that I made at home.


I just sold two of them on Etsy.  I feel slightly uncomfortable separating the red and gray Cthulhus from the green one.  This is the accompanying text:

These is a small stoneware clay sculpture of a Cthulhu idol, not so much meant to represent Great Cthulhu Itself, but rather a religious object your average Cthulhu cultist might keep on the mantel in his or her home, or on a child's night table so that it might be illuminated just so when the little angel turns on the night light. Cthulhu fhtagn, little one.
