Enable Me - Please!

I am having so much fun with these guys. I'm am getting some things ready for the November art fair and this piece is one of them. Can't believe I'm setting things aside for the fair this early, but it feels good.

Friendship - Ouch!

 A polymer clay sculpt I did as part of the "Bottled Up" series.  "Bottled Up" feelings hurt a lot more than if you let them out.  Art is a great way of letting them out.  Art heals.

Time on My Hands

C'mon, it's funny.

Art Heals

A bottle topper (stopper?) with an eye hook to hang different talismans and/or signs on.

And from playing with the above, I've decided to give him a polymer cane neckpiece. That's for another day when I have "too much time on my hands". Uh oh, another Bottled Up was just hatched.

Parts of Me

Creating something that touches the viewer is an unbelievable feeling. No words to describe it.

Whether the viewer feels positive, negative or ambiguous isn't the point.

It's the "feeling" part.

When someone connects to a piece of art, it is on an extremely personal level and for me, that connection is to be respected, honored, revered. What a gift! Peers who give a compliment, or friends and followers who take the time to comment; those are the moments in life that are so few and far between, but so very unforgettable.

Yeah, that's what I'm talkin about.

Stuffing Feelings

She is the first of my "Bottled Up Inside" polymer series. She is meant to be out of proportion, not aesthetically pleasing and in physical pain. She is carrying a lot inside.
