This little turtle rattle was created using the hand-building technique. I slipped and scored two surfaces, a round and a flat one, together and then attached the head, feet, and tail. I used horizontal and diagonal lines to create a shell on the turtle. After being bisque fired, I used low fire glaze to paint the shell brown and the head, feet, and tail green. After painting, I put a glaze to make the turtle shiny and then fired it, becoming glaze fired. I had a little trouble creating the effect of a shell, but after everything, I am thoroughly pleased with my turtle rattle.
