Material Mondays - Sculpture Figures 1

Allowing myself loose on working with clay has led me to try some more complex pieces, and experimenting with other materials such as powertex which is a fabric hardener.  I have been able to use several different mediums to create this sculpture.  I really love the way the fabric gathers and holds its shape.



I have also incorporated jewelry, gems, and flowers which helps with the overall effect.



Using the different materials gives you different textures, which then show through when you apply paint


I am really pleased with how she turned out, she stands around 12 inches tall.


She comes bearing flowers and is looking for a good home so if you are interested in purchasing I will be putting her up in my Etsy store
