Having made a sculpture the past for my friend Sabrina at Amor Artis hair design in Winterthur (www.amor-artis.ch) when she said she was opening another shop, albeit a barbers this time, I had to do another, so here it is!

The ring is a green stone, carved and added to the hand.

Clear out sale!

My latest micro-sculpture project; mini-flowers. I was thinking roses to start, but they’re becoming more peony now.  They’re about 2cm in diameter and each has around 50 individual petals.

Just a bit of fun!

She’s been framed.

He said it took him about 50hours to

She’s done – finally! My bas-relief of Anja Zeidler (https://anjazeidler.com/) I’m rather pleased with it – I hope she likes it too!

Anja

She’s about 6-8 inches in size and less than 10mm thick.  Made from polymer clay.

Taking it easy…

My latest piece.  She took far too long to finish for my liking,  but I am having trouble with motivation at the moment so I do just a few minutes each night, rather than getting really stuck in. There are artists (and others) who inspire me, and I wish I had their passion (and their skill) to keep going, hour after hour, day after day.  Perhaps I should dedicate my sculpture to ‘those with the passion and purpose to keep going’. Perhaps I will publish a list of those people? Perhaps I should just go back to bed!

Getting there slowly..

I really hope that everyone likes my latest sculpture…it’s taken me a lot longer than expected, having cut pieces off and re-sculpted them several times.  Have I mentioned how I have difficulty with hands and feet?! Still, I can see an end, so hopefully within a few days, you’ll see it here.  Please feel free to comment, so I feel the extra work was worth it.

Seeing as I had not realised this post was stuck on my phone from several days ago, I may as well continue the post…

I am so pleased with the way my latest piece came out… She is great (I think anyway).  Photos to come tomorrow I suspect… Please comment.
