made this AMAZING portrait of my sweet girl, Dolce! Thank you Satsuki, you turned one of my favorite memories into a gorgeous, one of a kind watercolor painting that I'm excited to give a place of honor in my home 🙏❤️ 🐕

Slowly refining the shapes on the chavant version. The face is hard to see in this light.

This is week three of my class and I'm sculpting TWO maquettes because I just cannot help myself lol

I LOVE chavant clay now (seriously, when I die, bury me in chavant) but I can't quit Super Sculpey. So, one of each!

This is the super sculpey version.

IG is being a butt this morning and not letting me post with my usual gleeful abandon 🥺

I wanted to repost some shots of this gnome I did last year because he's one of my favorite things I've ever sculpted. Months later Im able to see some of his flaws, but I still think he's a great little character and he makes me happy 😁
