WhhhhhhOOO......




is that I hear. Finally finished my Owl. He is made from papyclay. he is wearing a blue velvet cape with blue taffita over it. His orange necklace says "who who" and made from polymer clay. If you look close enough you can see his wings under the taffita. He stands about 6in. I know its been awhile since I added new pieces but family life is a bit in turmoil so not much time in the studio for me.

can you say WhO WhO.....

well he can....here is a "peek" at my paperclay owl that I have been working on for weeks. He is almost complete. I will finish him today!!! Here is a watercan I painted with a TerryE French design. Normally I do not paint chickens or rooster but I really like how this turned out!! Inside the watercan are assorted dryed flowers with little eggs. Both of these items will be going on E-Bay sometime this week!!!!
I hope everyone is having a productive weekend!! Sorry it took me so long to post pics but "that thing called life" interupts my studio time alot lately!!

plAyiNg....

Ok so I got a start on a new MaKeOvEr for my blog, not quite how I want it yet. Have some more playing to do but I'm starting to get a headache so I am done for right now. Need to go grocery shopping(JOY) and then its into the studio for me. I started 3 new paperclay sculpts and they are dry and ready to paint. BUT I guess feeding the family comes first....OY!!!!

ugh!!! cOmPutErs

Hi all....I haven't posted in awhile and I try to keep my PeRSOnAL life away from my blog. I started my blog to sHoWCaSe my work and that was it. Unfortunatly my personal life has taken over my creative life. The last few months have consisted of taking care of my father-in-law 24/7 and we are also going through a rough patch with my mother-in-law and trying to get her into assissted living. Since it is basically ONLY Skip and myself that are doing all of this alone, it causes alot of stress which in turn puts my "studio" time on hold. If I am under stress I can not focus or CoNcENtRatE on my work. Which is putting me into a depressive state, because I love creating art!!! I am however going to TRY and work on my blog and learn how to do all the fancy stuff I see on everyones blogs. Mine is just kinda plain and since not a lot of people know my work I am going through my files and plan on putting my past work on the blog. Any suggestions or advice would be great!!! So PLEASE bare with me through this transition.

AYYYyeeee...

Some people have been asking where I have been. We have been pretty busy with Family. But I need to get back in the studio. I have several pieces I have finished and previewed on my blog but have not put them on E-bay as of yet!!! I am however going to work on that this weekend hopefully if nothing comes up.
They are finally moving mom to heartland rehab today!!! She will probably no doubt stay there. Please bare with me as I try to get back to "normal".
ToOdLeS,
