Sue Milos Master Molds! |
Well...I guess I had to re coup from Christmas! But I'm feeling Strong ..Energized and Excited for New Stuff to Happen! There is a lot of New Creative Energy flowing...and I have Completed a Mermaid Doll!!! Of course Under pressure...because that is good for me!
Her tail is paper clay on a foil and wire armature that is jointed so it can bend. The design in the clay was created by pressing a stamp into the moist clay. Paints and rub-ons were used to create depth...the it was glossed with triple thick. The joints were created with bead caps and findings. I had to send the doll out and hopefully she will be in an Article. I won't say anymore until it happens!!! haha
(I hate rejection!).....
Sues "Many" Tiny Sweets! |
Anyway....I went to visit my Friend Sue Milo and we both got crazy with creating tiny sweets...Finding special molds...clays...embellishments for toppings...blah blah blah...I cant wait to continue on my sweets making journey...But I Believe Sue went over the edge! haha...She made some beautiful original sweets..and she also went nuts creating her own molds....She is now the "Precision Master Mold Maker" in my book!!! Check her stuff out!
And last but not least...Is my ART IS You 2012 Class Project. She Is halfway there...The Class is written up and now She needs to Come Alive ! I know where I'm going with this....I hope she becomes who I want her to be ..sometimes these dolls are so stubborn...and refuse to cooperate...
