Expressive Ceramic Creatures


Rain frog


Helen Burgess, who works under the moniker nosey mungo, crafts a playful troupe of characters with endlessly diverse expressions: there’s a flock of startled chickens, a bulging rain frog sporting a dramatic frown, and a whale duo grinning with contentment. Imbued with a bit of whimsy, Burgess’s clay creatures are derived from their real-life counterparts. The ceramicist skims encyclopedias to find lesser-known animals to sculpt, sometimes focusing on endangered species in order to raise awareness. Living and working near Brighton, Burgess creates the adorable critters in small batches, which she shares on Instagram.

Blue waxbill

This stunning bird is the Blue Waxbill, a vibrant little gem found in southern Africa. Its soft blue feathers and calm demeanor make it one of the most eye-catching birds out there. You can often find them foraging for seeds on the ground, living in flocks in open woodlands and savannas. Fun Fact: These birds often live near termite mounds to snack on insects when seeds are scarce!
