Pine Marten Cermaic Tile Table -- from drawing

Ok, it isn't done yet, but on the way.  Took drawing and interpreted into ceramic tiles. The first pine marten shape came out too light and a too cartoon like in the face. Scrapped it, and made another. This one looks a little troubled...maybe because of fear of dwindling food supply/territory to roam free? Need to work on my ability to draw a face "realistically" in glaze. But, not going for the 3-peat here...will take this set of tiles into table form (glue, grout, build table) over the next few weeks.

Made for person who believes they spotted this animal on local tee...hasn't been seen roaming in this area for awhile, so further investigation is underway.
