Living in scorching deserts and dry grasslands, the golden jackal survives by being a trickster. Normally, this predator has little problem using its big ears and incredible endurance to find and kill prey. When food is hard to find, though, the jackal follows lions to share in their kills, or even enlists the help of a cheetah to take down a victim it couldn't tackle by itself. These animals live in a tight family unit, and adult jackals are great parents.What Was That? A set of large, rounded

767 Vulture Installation Waiting: After the Kill 12”x8”x9” *This installation is currently in a show This three-part, or triptych, sculpture centers on vultures who immediately populate the area where a kill has just happened by a lion, leopard, jackal, hyena or other predatory African animal. This piece was inspired by my most recent trip to South Africa during which we came across several kills where white-back and hooded vultures were thick in the trees waiting for the lions to leave so they could feast on the remains. This image was powerful and this installation, each piece approximately 12”x8”x9” are placed together to show how vultures take their places within several trees that surround the kill. Each of these pieces was made from several clay bodies: stoneware, Lizella, and porcelain. Two of the pieces were gas-fired without a glaze, while the third piece was soda-fired with a orange-ish flashing slip which results in gorgeous browns. The trees were handbuilt with deep textures with many branches to hold the vultures (approximately 15 in each of the pieces). Many of the vultures were made from Lizella that when high-fired results in a matte silvery black to give the impression of vultures in silhouette. Others were made in stoneware with porcelain accents. In two pieces, larger sculptures of vultures were included to emphasize both perspective and content. Wooden bases not included.

Silver Backed Jackal seen sitting out in the open grass fields of Masai Mara early in the morning just after sunrise. Normaly seen in pairs with cubs and very communal family group with lots of interaction amongst the family members. A carnivore but hardly ever makes a kill, but always found near to Lion prides where it snatches bits and runs away.
