Come Clay with Me- Section 1-WIPs and One Done?

 So, I've been working off and on with the first characters from section one of Come Clay With Me with Jeanne Marie Webb (see them drying in a previous post) since my last post. Once they were dry, sanded, and cleaned up, I put the undercoat on the first one and painted and re-painted on her, failing to get her anywhere near to the teacher's painting, but that's ok. She became her own character! 


I thought she was done when I put her in the bowl with the four other wip characters, which I had put th I  e undercoat layer of paint on, but the mouth and blue dots kept bothering me until I changed the blue to white and changed her mouth back to its original look. I also toned down the white around her mouth and I think she may be done.

This is how she looks now, and I've already started working on the next one. I messed up the sculpting part of this one, so I made another one from the same class in the same pose, only 3/4 pose. I've had a real struggle with this one, but she was good practice, and, as usual, she taught me a lot. She is telling her story!

Can't wait to see what the next one's story is!
