What does this texture remind you of?

Lichen.
A quiet architecture of life, crocheted.

Henry Moore studied at the Royal Academy of Art in London, yet he soon defied traditional academic methods. Moore abandoned the use of clay preparatory models and began to carve directly into the surface of stone and wood; he sought to enhance the inherent characteristics of his natural materials. Massive pre-Columbian and Neolithic stone carvings, as well as the experimental abstract forms of avant-garde artists such as Jean Arp, strongly influenced Moore. He focused on the feminine figure as an archetype of earthiness, fertility, and nurture. 
 
 Composition is an early example of Moore's use of interlocking biomorphic forms: both the open cavities and the curvilinear, organic forms suggest anatomical features. Moore's gentle abstractions often recall the undulating hills of his native English countryside and thus further his equation of women with nature.

Barbara Hepworth works on “Curved Form, Bryher II” (1961)

Here's a wonderful article about the artist...

By 1963, architect Bruce Graham of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill developed designs for the Brunswick Building (now the Cook Country Administrative Building), including a monumental work for the plaza just west of the structure. He commissioned Joan Miró, known for his abstract paintings and sculptures composed of biomorphic shapes, to produce a monument that would complement Pablo Picasso’s planned sculpture for the new civic center (now Richard J. Daley Center) across the street.
After visiting Chicago to survey the site and designs for the building, Miró made this plaster maquette as a proposal. The commission was delayed, however, for nearly two decades, until 1980, when Mayor Jane Byrne launched new efforts to realize Miró’s design: a 40-foot-tall female figure with outstretched arms made of bronze, ceramic tiles, and cement. Miró’s Chicago was completed and dedicated on the artist’s 88th birthday, April 20, 1981.

Miró's Chicago (officially titled The Sun, the Moon and One Star) is a sculpture by Joan Miró in Brunswick Plaza, Chicago, United States. It is 39 feet (12 m) tall, and is made of steel, wire mesh, concrete, bronze, and ceramic tile.

Me and AI text:
Diving deep into the organic structures. The top image shows the energetic underpainting, while the bottom highlights the complex, cellular texture built up in the final study. Exploring the chaos within structure and colour.

Driving through the Nevada and Utah badlands over the past couple of days inspired the colors in this piece. Would’ve loved to wander into the desert and forage for pigments but I’m on a tight schedule 🚗📆

Each of these piexes are individually made - no molds or patterns. I'm thinking I need to make matching spoons🤔
These will both be available next month at a new @shopmakers.ca store in Kelowna! So excited!

Not a very practical vessel - but interesting to look at...? I'm seeking to make more unconventional pieces; familiar yet ambiguous...

I have named these "Tafoni Vessels" - after the natural formations VM created by water and wind on rocks and sand. Nature is an excellent sculptor!

Sometimes, a piece of work I've created just gives me pure joy- this little guy is one of them! It was fun to make and even better to see having made it through its bisque fire safely this morning.

This 6-legged pod vessel is ready for drying now! I've been trying to take some of my favorite encaustic sculptural forms and make them in clay - I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!

This little weirdo is all done! Two d-rings seen into the back means it can hang in any configuration, or just sit on a tabletop.
