Works in progress on my work table right now. All new paper clay sculptured beings inspired by the Come Clay with Me course plus a re-do of the first cage doll I made!
All are in the process of drying except the painted one in front. The three across the back are not part of any class, but in a previous post I shared three heads, which I have now added busts to, making them stand alone. The taller one I used a paper mache body form left over from another project. She is giving herself a hug.
The little bell shape with the ears I made previously will be a bunny mask/hat to fit the hugging figure. The little being, inspired by lesson 4, with her knees drawn up and her bunny ears is waiting on her arms and hands, and the two shells will become little containers for a figure, yet to be sculpted, to be holding for lesson five. I used mussel shells, which are shallow, so I set them in paper clay.
This is the first cage doll I made (see previous posts), which I haven't added the crown and accessories to yet. Anyway, I never liked the blue she was painted, so when the hot glue I used to glue the cage sticks to her turned loose I took the opportunity to pull them all off and re-paint her dress. I like her much better. Now to use some better glue to put her skirt strips back on and add her accessories!
It's going to take these a while to dry, so it may be after Christmas before they get painted. In the meantime I'll keep sketching and practicing, or maybe I'll make journals for a couple of other courses I'm taking, or I've been wanting to stitch more meditations. We'll see!
