The ceramic animal figurines happily decorated homes for years before they were eventually discarded. One garage sale led to another and, finally, chipped and partially broken, to the thrift store.

That’s where mad scientist/artist Debra Broz found them. She promised these discarded figures a home. But there was a price to pay for that new home. Oh, yes, a terrible, terrible price.
For Broz performed…experiments on them. She altered them.
When is she done working upon one of her subjects? In an interview with Artist Strong, she explained:
In the case of the ceramics, the piece is finished when all the final production work is done: when the painting, sculpting and finish all look exactly how they should. I have a problem with perfectionism so this can be a long process but it’s pretty boring, it’s really all technique.
The more difficult part for the ceramics is knowing when the idea is finished. I try to make sure I’m thoughtful about my work. That means when I have a concept, I always think about pushing it farther- it’s not just exchanging heads and bodies. If I feel like I’ve thought it out well and gone beyond simply visual to add some other type of concept, then the idea is done.
