The slab roller is used to roll clay out into flattened slabs and our slab roller is not currently functioning. Almost everything that I make requires slabs. I've become dependent on The Machines. Fortunately, I had a few projects planned that didn't require slabs of clay. One of them is an aberrant interpretation of this strange object I bought in a dollar store in Dunellen, NJ in the late nineties. It's clearly a mammal of some kind and it has a friendly, dog-like expression, but it has no ears and it appears to have a mane of dreadlocks. Is it a dog? Is it a lion?
