Polymer Clay Sculptures

gourd fairy house

I was very lucky to get a varied packet of clay (slightly used) at a bargain price. The clay was slightly old but I managed to get it soft again. This was one of the first things I made. The curtains were made from a mix of tiny scraps. The house is built around a gourd blanced on a plaster of Paris disc with three more discs forming the structure of the steps.

These little elves have a posable body with fimo heads & hands. Next time I make them they'll have feet as well. I scanned them in on the scanner, the reason for the wierd angle. Their hands are hooks and with the bendable arms and legs they can be repositioned any where on their gourd.

End of 2004 I was determined to get some sculpting in. I started with four more mushroom men using up the last of the mushroom caps and then going onto foil armatures. I then repaired and redressed another ceramic doll that had had an accident and was dirty from lying around for a year.
