I call these playful pieces 2 ½ dimensional and enjoy them most when their gestures give them personalities. <div align="center"> </div><div align="center"><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/1600/bowman09.jpg"><img style="" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/320/bowman09.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">"Still Life"<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/1600/bowman04.jpg"><img style="" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/320/bowman04.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">"Miss Clavel"<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/1600/bowman01.jpg"><img style="" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/320/bowman01.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">"Sassy Fat Bowl"<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/1600/bowman03.jpg"><img style="" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/8084/3734/320/bowman03.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;">"Heron-bone Pitcher" </div></div><div align="center"><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Texture fascinates me.
