Backed up! 01/14/2011
Alright.... Since my last blog I have made three sculptures!! One piece actually was 4 sculptures all together!! So I guess that makes 6. Needless to say I have been working very hard! Since it is a New Year I have decided to revamp my website....yet again!! I am one of those people who gets bored very quickly with most things. Like one day my husband will come home and I would have rearranged the living room. This happens frequently! Even yestarday I rearranged my studio...maybe in hopes for the new inspiration!LOL. Since it has not even been a year since I started selling my work and have had this website I figure now is the time to change it and fiqure out what I like so down the road I don't have the same dilema! So you get it.:) I hope you like my new site. I feel like it's a bit easier to navigate. Especially through the Gallery area. I also feel like its a bit more me(trendy, sorta retro). I have even made a banner that you can add to your own website if you like and follow my work!! That banner is in the contact page. Instead of doing three separte blog post I am going to post all of my recent work to this one alone. I will put a few of each so you can see them better since I will not be adding them to my 2010 Gallery. My first sculpture of 2011 is in the brand new mermaid gallery!!! Have fun!! I hope you like all of my hard work!!! Luna , Raggamuffin, and The Three Blind mice were commission peices. Transformation will be on Auction in the next coming weeks! If interested in her use the contact forum!!! Always, Stefanie 1 Comment Princess and the Pea 11/11/2010
Today I put "The Princess" in the Fairy Tale Gallery!! I Love her!! I have been thinking about the idea for months now but, I wanted her to really be great so..I waited and now finally she is here!!! If you have not heard of this tale I will go ahead and tell you the basics of the Hans Christian Anderson s Version. There was a Prince in search of a Princess. This Prince went around the world looking for the right one. He could not find anything so he went home. During the night there was a storm. During the storm a woman was on the door step of the castle. The mother of the Prince offered her a place to stay for the night and decided to test her to see if she was "The One" (us mothers always have those feelings :)!) So the mother went to dress her bed and put a pea under her mattress and stacked twenty more matresses on top. Surely if she felt the pea she would be a true Princess. The next morning when the woman woke up her back was all bruised up. She went and told the Prince and he said you are "The One" because only a true Princess would feel a pea under twenty mattresses! I love this story because I always can feel the slightest thing under my pillow. Not that I am a princess .....lolololo but, the story is great! I love making these Fairy Tale dolls. I am am in the works of making my next so keep a look out if you enjoy a great story like I do:) check her out here!! Potion Genie-Sketch it out 08/24/2010
This is my newest "Vision". her name is Potion Genie. The sketch is how most of my dolls come about! I have so many ideas running through my head for new dolls and if I don't sketch them out they will not be remembered!:)lol Actually that drawing book has about twenty more just waiting on me! Usually I stray from my vision in the end because I come up with something while i am making it. I am proud to say this one I actually stayed on target! haha. I use to want to be a cartoonist... (for as far back as I can remember), So I have realized through sculpting that every one my dolls has an animated look about them. That is also where the drawing them out comes to play! I don't have a crazy story for this one but, I do like her a lot. Something about her makes me think " I will make you a potion....for a price!":) The Blue Caterpillar 08/14/2010
So we all know the story of Alice and her trip down the rabbit hole. So many people have given their twist on every character in the story through clay! I have not yet seen Absolem as a woman or half human. So this is MY take on wonderland! I had so much fun with this one!! I made her Hookah:) and Monocle out of beads!! <3 i sculpted her caterpillar tail out of blue clay and went wild with paint and of course slipper fitted feet!:) Staying true to the 1951 Disney version. This inspired a whole category devoted to these beloved fables! I hope you guys enjoy her as much as i do! ps. i threw in a picture that i edited with smoke vowels at the end of the gallery slide:) ABSOLEM PICS HERE! |
