If you still haven’t discovered the quirky world of pottery artists who specialize in face mugs, now’s the time! Alex Mrachkovskiy is one of the artists leading the way, and we’re constantly in awe of his unusual mugs with adorable faces.
Mrachkovskiy is based in Ukraine and he describes himself as a “clay master”. He discussed his craft with Trendy Art Ideas and explained that he picked this medium because it helps him to find and realize his ideas in progress, even when he starts working without any.
This pottery artist believes that “nature can give as much power as we can take”, and that’s why he mostly draws inspiration from animals, trees, moss, leaves, and rocks. His pottery evolved a lot over time and he tried many different approaches, but quirky mugs with faces became his signature product.
You can find many examples on Mrachkovskiy’s Instagram page, but tree spirit mugs, reminiscent of Guardians of the Galaxy’s Groot are his biggest hit. Personalized cat mugs are also equally irresistible, and they’re available for purchase on his Etsy page.
