A while back, I was doodling on some graph scrap paper and came up with this:
It took longer than it should have, but at the last two clay days, I started putting the components together. First, the bodies:
Then, the heads:
Then the long, tedious task of mixing yet more background clay. It finally came together:
And I finished and reduced it a bit at the Country Village Harvest Festival:
Now I have to decide what to do with it (although, I will say...LOTS of natasha beads!)....
Looks very clever and graphic, Cathy. I know from experience much will be lost in reduction (hooray for natasha beads) but part of the fun is just seeing if it can be done!
ReplyDeleteHeh! Don't I know it! Right now it's about 4 1/2 inches square. I'd like to get it down to 3 1/2 and cut a few Christmas Ornaments. I'm going to try making it in fabric as well for a wall-hanging.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words!
