Pot: Enalaunga (Echidna) family 2004

First I roll the clay, start build the pot and put another coil, build more and more, make big one. Then I finish that clay and think, something I’m gonna do, what’s ‘round near Hermannsburg, There’s lots of echidna ‘round near sandhill. I scrape it, polish it first, then make animals, make echidna. I paint big one first, then put log, then all the babies, and father. Father went look for food, and he bring back and all the little ones coming out. On the lid I put another one, a log with mother one, and two little echidna, one on top, one coming out (from log) and another one coming out other side.
