Polymer Clay Alter Ego

This is me in polymer clay. I love to paint, bead and create with polymer clay. I keep my alter ego hanging on the wall near my work space to remind me that not all projects have to be finished; it's ok to have trays of works in progress. Not all projects have to be perfect. I can have a painting started and be in the middle of a beaded piece while I'm finishing a free form crochet. Having said that, I have to seriously clean my workspace. She also reminds me when it's time to get a grip.

HA! She is wonderful! Thanks for the helpful advice. I woke up today looking at multiple unfinished pieces and started to get upset. No more. Thanks!

LOL, Marlene! I love her tongue sticking out...so perfect for a feeling that has no words to describe! This really is a work-intensive piece. Did you do it in your PJs? Just wondering since it looks like she's wearing hers. :)

I think I may have found my long lost twin in you. This is the first time I have been on your blog and already I see we are alike. I too am all over the place. Crochet here, clay there. writing over there, more ideas in my head. You wouldn't happen to be a Gemini would you?
