Finished Burro Brush Menorah
I had planned five more theoretically salable menorahs with geometrical patterns or imprints of plants. This is the last of the five and, although I did sell one normal menorah on Etsy, I'm ready to go back to aberrant art for a while. This menorah uses the imprint of a shrub that grows in and near the Rillito river bed in Tucson.
I haven't identified the plant yet. It looks and smells a little like dill.

Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
ceramic artist and potter in Tucson, Arizona.
I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, sculpture, hamsas, ornaments, masks, and a variety of other forms.
I’m a self-taught autistic artist working in my medium for over twenty years. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, folk horror, horror comedy, horror in general, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme.
I am in love with my medium. I love the process of frantically birthing clay monstrosities, subjecting them to an epic trial by fire, and sending them out into the world.
