And my 'mud' creations....


Okay... I thought I would continue with some of my older art work pictures.

One of the things that I enjoyed and actually continue to enjoy is working with clay and sculpting clay and making pottery and even painting pottery.

So I am actually going to start with the first of the painted work.... my Day of the Dead Mugs. I really really really liked how they turned out...



Now however I get into my pottery/sculpture work. I miss it building and structuring pieces.



These are my singing lizard temples...



This was the second set that I created and the set I feel is the better set...



I started with the two small ones....



… and then went on to the larger one.



I am really proud of this set and the glaze job that I did on it.

And for the record... I made these back in 1994

And so that you think I only did sculpture structures...



I did make a pitcher. I liked the design I cut into the clay and then rubbed the glaze so that it stand out.

Some old, some new and some inspiration

As I sit here looking over my past year I have realized just how much I have grown in my artistic ways. My horizons have expanded and I have had a desire to continue on with my best foot forward. But I shouldn't forget the past. So this week I am going to be looking back at the art that has passed out of my mind and into the world at large. And since I am working on drawing I thought I would start there.

There are actually not a lot of pieces I really really like. I also do not feel I have a lot of color work. I have a ton of line work but not a lot of color work.

Ferrets have been something I have loved and kept close to my heart for many years... (check out my other blog the Furry Slinkies... my random ferrety adventures are spoken of there.)

The first couple of pictures are old ferret drawings... when I gave them really short noses...



I have since altered my style slightly...








Not colored but still enjoyable.

Some earlier work shows how I liked to draw the fur when I inked.



Though one piece I am actually very very proud of is this one...



Chalking her way to OZ Shows my love for ferrets and my love for the wonderful world of Oz.

There is one more piece I want to show off for the day...



Hopefully you will begin to see more of him... he is definitely an inspiration to my life... after all he is my muse.
