Narrator: This artist creates ceramics with lifelike lips and teeth. Tatiana Cardona is the ceramist behind Female Alchemy. She'll start by making the mug out of clay. Then Tatiana will mold the lips, teeth, and tongue. She'll score them to make it easier to attach. After the mug dries, Tatiana paints on designs like flowers. They're fired in a kiln for up to 24 hours. Then glazed with a clear coat to create a glossy look.
