I have a lovely friend called Malachi

I have a friend called Malachi, and he is very supportive and encouraging of my pieces. To the point where the best way to repay him for his influence is to mention him in his favourite works.
He is from Fiji and very christian, he sees animals and flowers in the blobby glaze lumps in my works. One day, he ventured to my studio and found this piece on the floor. He proceeded to walk around it to figure it out and then yelled "I see it!"

-Hey Mal!  Whats Up?
"look here Rachie, 
Rachie Rachie - here is two mice, they are red because it is hot and they are sitting and there is bright beautiful colours, they are the flowers in the garden, it is the garden of Eden... and look there is a monkey and it is busy eating, here you can see it right there! a Parrot, a beautiful parrot..."

- oh yeah? ooh yeahhhhhh! but that's a little upside down and that's from all the drips when I fired this little one upside down on top of it - it filled it up with more glaze and then I caught some drips and--

"yeasss its very beautiful, I love all the colours. All the colours "

Thankyou Mal, I love the colours too !
