Jennifer Moquino is known for her clay vessels and also her amazing animal figures! This is a charming raccoon made from clay.  The entire back is stone polished.  The face is highly detailed, as is the tail. The back has raccoon paw tracks in the center.  There are realistic fish, rain clouds and feather designs.  This raccoon is larger than many of the others she has made. All the various colors are derived from natural clay slips.  Jennifer continues to be one of the leading innovative potters working today!
