All posts for the month June, 2012
Have you ever had a dream that you just had to create when you woke up? That’s what happened to me with this swan. I woke up knowing exactly what it was going to look like but no idea how I was going to get it there. This has been a mammoth task but I’m so glad I was able to do it. I still have some last minute finishing touches to do on it but for the most part it’s complete.
I handcrafted each petal and leaf from polymer clay and then hand painted some details on each one. Would I do it again, I’ve asked myself that question and the answer is a resounding YES I would! In fact, I will be starting another arrangement soon but it won’t be nearly as complicated as this one was. I have no idea where this new-found art form will take me but I’m enjoying the ride and hope you enjoy it with me.

I’ve been working on this Polar Bear the last couple of days since the weather is so wet and cold outside here in Oregon. It seemed like the perfect subject to go along with the wintery mix. Although it’s not completed, I wanted to share my progress with you.

Well here it is, the finished sculpture. The only thing left to do is seal it and send it off to my Dad for father’s Day. I had fun with this one. Now to figure out what to create next, hmmm. I do have a necklace to work on for the AMY Roloff Charity Foundation but it’s still in the design stage at the moment. A trip to the Zoo would be fun and inspiring but we don’t have one close enough for me to go. Sure wish we did though. There’s nothing more fun than spending the day at the zoo checking out the wildlife.

I’m working on a Father’s Day sculpture right now and wanted to share it with you. I’ve completed the Salmon and now will be working on the stand to hold it. I’m pretty happy with how the fish came out and have my fingers crossed that the rest of it will be what I have planned. You never know when you’ll have a happy accident though and everything changes. I suppose that’s what I love about working with clay. You just never know how your creation will turn out until it’s finished. I’ll post the completed sculpture soon as I plan on working on it again today.
