Hi Everyone,

Tonight I wanted to make something that only took an hour or so. Well, I didn’t get done but maybe in another hour I’ll finish.(Yesterday I did two of the cat’s from my last blog post) It’s nothing much but just something for fun that’s easy and hopefully will look okay when done. It’ll be an Indian woman with braids (since I’m using red clay) and she’s holding her baby, her kitty. I just want it to be rough and unfinished looking. Right now it’s not done at all but with a little bit of work it’ll be done.

Hi Friends,

Instead of working on something tedious and important to have just right, I wanted to play in the clay. Oftentimes when I do this is when I’m helping on a project for a family member who’s making something. So I end up not playing just for myself. Since I liked the red clay so much, I decided to get it out and make something. At first I was going to make some birds but decided to make cats since I love them so much.

Hi Everyone,

Here’s a quick sketch of Luisa, a close friend that is 89 years old. She’s the sweetest lady that you’ll ever meet.  She is an artist herself and paints beautifully.  She eminates love to all, strangers or dearest friends. I just had to make a clay sculpture of her.  I worked from pictures that I had and memory.  I know it would be better to have her right there, that is for sure.  Now I need to have her come and make some alterations to her body because I have her torso too long and knees to narrow.  Working from life prevents backtracking and reworking the sculpture. :)
