'Dizzy's Dream II' ceramic sculptures. Jazz theme. - $275 (SE Portland)

I've been waiting to post these two sculptures for sale for a while... I believe that they are referencing or depicting Dizzy Gillespie's band. As you can see, these are two distinct sculptures by a highly-rated artist named Ryan. Some years ago, my contact at Liberal Palette gallery in Idaho had explained to me that the artist uses/casts 'Raku' ceramics. I honestly don't know enough about this, but it's a special and fairly rare technique. As you can see, they were quite expensive pieces at the time ($900 in total.) I'm asking for a third of the gallery price. If interested, come by and check out the art pieces in person sometime.
