SpRiNg......

is in the air....then it goes away.....THEN it comes back! Yes I live in MiChIgAn(wait 5min and the weather will change). Below is a lil chicky I made from Polymer clay, added a felt hat with glitter and a Pink jewel hanging from it. He is sitting on a antique spoon with purple wire wrapped around the handle and a polymer clay purple flower that reads "chicky" Here is another antique spoon(3in X1in) with polymer clay sugar cubes and a polymer clay flower that reads "sugar"
I must say this is my favorite. Polymer clay bunny with glitter, flowers, and beads inside the bottle so when you give it a shake it is all Purty(giggle)

and last of all.....paperclay victorian bunny!!


enjoy.....

yeah.....ArT

Finished up some projects in the studio friday!!! The lil guy below is a polymer clay snowman on parade!! I took a metal candel holder and removed the glass and stuck the snowman inside, by the look on his face I don't think he was very happy about it. There are snowballs and polymer clay lollipops on the front. This fella is happy not to be in a cage(giggle) He is all polymer clay. So is his reindeer.
I handpainted this wood plaque with a few different Terrye French designs! I added some grapvine and flowers to the top and made a "garden Angel" tag out of polymer clay.








All of these items will be available on e-bay soon or if anyone is interested they can email me.

Where is SpRiNG......

spring is in the air......I hope!!! This winter weather is taking its toll on me. I haven't been able to go in the studio like I want. Alot of family issues right now with My honeys parents and stress!!! I do have a few easter/spring items in the works though and I am hoping to make it to the studio today!! I have been scrolling my favorite blogs and it looks like everyone is in the SpRiNG "mode". Will hopefully be able to post new work soon.

WeLl HEEELLLOOO!!!

Been pretty busy here!!! Had some more hospital visits. Mom ended up in the hospital this time with a bad infection so we had to scramble to get dad somewhere, he is 24 hr care and on hospice. We managed to get him into a hospice house for a few days until mom was released from the hospital. So NOW everything is a bit quieter here. I managed to make it in the studio Monday and finsihed sculpting a bunny out of paperclay. Hopefully I will have him done by the weekend and I can put all my new work on ebay.

On another note I have also been working on our new group: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=313322746754

This is our paranormal site on facebook. Bay city paranormal research society. I hope you can take a minute and check it out.

feeling a bit SpRinGy....

Here are ThReE spring items I finished up the other day. They are all Terrye French designs!!!
The chicky in the water can is made from polymer clay. There is also some light glitter around the top of the can, it doesn't show up very good!!


This wallpocket is painted with my favorite color. The carrots inside are also made from polymer clay. You can see some of the glitter on this one. This is my favorite one!!

I will be posting these on E-bay sometime this week, but if anyone is interested in them before I post them just e-mail me. Hopefully I can get some bEtTeR pics for e-bay!!

Keeping head above water....

is hard to do when there's a flood. Dad was rushed back to the hospital last week with breathing problems and irregular heart beats. He is DNR so they just made him comfortable. We finally got hospice set up and he came home a few days ago. We all know it will only be a matter of time before he goes "home". He is ready to go and understands everything that is going on. I have not been in the studio for almost 2 weeks now. I just don't feel very creative at this point. So there will be some slacking on my part as far as posts and new art. Please bare with me.
