Improving at sculpture.

Here is a head I have been working on in DAS clay. Running out of the stuff now, which is making it doubtful whether she will ever get any hair...


The beauty of DAS is that it dries in the air and doesn't need baking, which is just as well given the result of my first attempt with Sculpey, some seven years past. Just found these photos while sorting out the files on my computer...

There must have been some reaction with the foil interior. Came out bloated and reeking like hell!


Updates.

Went to the Rimini area of Italy, this summer, which was nice...

Took in some castles and churches, saw some scenery, went on the beach, collected shells which might come in useful, and got sunburnt.

Speaking of the sea,

Had some of my older mermaid pieces featured in this...

Abra Zine, summer 2014 edition...
