I’ve been sculpting and painting, and have made some progress today 🖤

here's my first attempt at making something with #PolymerClay ~~ a pair of earrings!

Day 2 on Mastodon:

I don’t fully understand the Fediverse yet, but everyone seems super nice and no one's tried to sell me crypto, so that’s already an improvement over most of the internet. 🔐😅

So, if you like birds, bees, gardens, my quirky art, or quiet backyard moments… we’ll probably get along just fine. 🌿🐦🐝🎨

Hope you're all having a wonderful day ✌🏻

Things have been difficult, so I haven’t made much progress in several days, but I’m making a miniature doll because I wanted to try something different (I’m an artist: https://ko-fi.com/lukeorion ) and I think it’s cute so far! Also I’m welcoming any tips for working with polymer clay, I haven’t worked with it much and I don’t have tools so 🤷🏻

Couple of Things: we make custom #bobbleheads from people’s #photos, and some of these turned out adorably hilarious: https://zorz.it/ZPzmU

I'm getting over a bad habit of buying cheap things. It stems from not having a lot growing up. To combat this, I’m trying to develop skills in which I can design and create the fun little things I want in life. Working with polymer clay is next on the list! How well will it go? Let’s find out together.

About 67.800 years ago, in a cave in Sulawesi, some ancient humans placed their hands against the wall and blew a mixture of red-orange pigments and water on it. #polymerclay
Inspired by Babylonian Ishtar gate and Ishtar, god of war and sexual love. Why is that a common combination? She is often pictured with a lion, therefore the hair. Like how the painting on her face got a bit rough. I haven't figured out how best to use glass inclusions. Box 12 cm #polymerclay

It's been a busy few weeks, what with travel for work, birthday parties, and tedious illness. But this weekend, I should be able to get back to making some wee birdies (with a break for the Italy vs Scotland match of course).

I've made simple sketches, mapping colours and some blending thoughts. The drawings are the same size as I will make the initial cane, so I'll use them as a map and lay the shaped blocks on top to check sizes.

Sculpy Air dry Porcelain claims to have zero shrinkage but *in my experience* it's got between 2 - 4 mm of shrinkage depending on project, and that might not seem like a lot - but - it can make a MASSIVE difference when creating miniatures or dealing with fine details.
