Busy, Busy
Some new items since my last post.
I've been so busy! I was lucky enough to spend a week in Santa Fe with Tory Hughes. What a wonderful experience that was!

Lotus Pond Necklace
This is my latest necklace and I have to admit that it wasn't my original idea. This is direct from the book Flourish by Christi Friesen. It really wasn't hard to do at all! In fact, stringing those darn little beads and pearls was the most difficult part ( these old eyes aren't as sharp as they once were).

In the Grip of Faux Bone
I swore off jewelry in December, but somehow it has sneaked back into my creative stream. Faux bone had me in its grip for awhile, now I'm working on some springlike pods and branches, plus flowers unlike what I did last year. There is also a giraffe painting in the works. I must note that the faux bone I'm using is entirely made from polymer clay, it's not the product that Robert Dancik sells, although I have some of that, too.

Happy New Year!
Tonight I'm quietly cutting some stamps to use in my artwork. My jumping off point has been a wonderful book, Making an Impression by Geninne Zlatkis. I used her designs to make a few Christmas presents which were well received. I find cutting the stamps to be a very Zen experience.

New Boxes....Meow
Some more of my repurposed cigar boxes. The first is a steampunk style box. I've had a little bag of watch parts for a few years, just waiting for the perfect thing to come along to use them on. The next is cat related. All the stamps are cat pictures. It was fun to collect all the rubber stamps I used for this project. The last picture shows the boss, Perry, supervising the photography.

Practice
Just to keep my fingers limber, in the drawing way, I sketched this little girl's face today while I was working at the gallery. I miss drawing!

Little Shrines
This is what I've been working on lately, with lots more coming.......having a great time doing it! I'm also working on three inros, my first I've ever made. They each will be having an animal on them, a tree frog, a mouse, and some koi. I'll post pictures soon.

Portrait Practice Sketches
These are all just sketches, far from finished drawings. I'm trying to keep my drawing practiced while my life has been taken over by polymer clay. I referred to a book of portraits taken by the great photographer, Steve McCurry. These are some of the ones that spoke to me.

Two Little Projects
This is a chain I made following directions on Polymer Clay Tutor. I used scrap clay and then two colors of Gilder's Paste. Now I have to think of a way to incorporate it into a necklace.
