Colin's Creatures Handmade Porcelain Sheep Figurines, Merino Family


 

This trio Merino family have a softer look in their faces than many of my other sheep. Their coloring is flesh and their flat nose and droppy ears add to their adorable look. The ram has horns that curl upwards and outwards, and his lamb looks up at him with admiration.

All my creatures are handcrafted in my Asheville, NC studio using porcelain, castable stone and imported woven fur from Steiff-Schulte in Germany.
