I may build little figures, some animals, some angels, some goddesses. I made a Hecate a few months ago, but didn't quite like the way the stain/glaze came out. I kept staring at her, knowing something had to be done, because if I didn't like her, I'd eventually destroy her (as I did Athena and a couple of other attempts that failed badly.)
Yes those are cutouts in her skirt. She can have a small candle placed under her through a hole in the base.
I've used acrylics to paint the colors thinly over the tones of the stain, but have left the staff and the cup as it originally looked.
I haven't decided whether to do more painting...perhaps a stain on the cobblestones, or the grassy area on the base.
oh my goodness she turned out wonderfully
ReplyDeleteIt is a very nice figure. Somehow it will turn out very well.
ReplyDeleteHello, I think you did a beautiful job. The face looks wonderful. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteLinda - Thanks, glad you like it!
ReplyDeleteNancy - Thank you - I'm still looking at it about the last work to do...
Eileen - Thanks. I was working on the face a long time...but still want to do a few final touche.
She's a keeper!
ReplyDeleteShe turned out awesome!
ReplyDeleteVicki - Thanks, I'm beginning to like her much more!
ReplyDeleteMichele - Thanks, it means a lot to hear that from another artist in clay!
