The best part of making these creatures is figuring out “how”. My dad was a carpenter. He used to drive around on trash days, pick whatever caught his eye, and use it for something. He didn’t create art, per se, but he liked making do - and so do I! I’ve been known to dumpster dive - but don’t tell anyone...
"Wildflower Nymph"
Paper clay, acrylic paint, acrylic ink, found and/or vintage objects
“Madame Blue and Her Yellow Flower Boobelahs”
(My friend, Suzanne, comes up with the best names!)
I had a bit of silk and thought I’d tart her up a bit.
Her dress is trimmed with a cupcake paper.
Paper clay, acrylic paint, acrylic ink, wooden spools
Both of these figures were made to hang on the wall. Accomplishing that is a story for another day!
