Finally Jane

Ok, ok , you all can stop giving me a hard time now...Jane is finished. ;o) I broke down and bought a new tool and worked her over a lot. For me, painting is the hardest part and I still don't have it down to where I want it yet. Also, next to painting, sculptures are so hard to photograph as they look soooooo much better in person! That is what I love about sculpture, it demands to be viewed in person, that it really should be viewed in the round. I'll do a video again soon but not today. I would say that the ones of her on the bookcase are the closest to what her true color is.

So also, how funny is the photo of her backside. I didn't realize that Earl Grey was staring at her bum! he he I really like her on the bookcase but it is just so hard to convey how dark she actually is. Probably time for a new camera.



Here is my next painting project. Haven't figured out what to name him yet. That is unusual for me because normally the names come to me fast. Maybe I will name him when he is done or get all of your opinions. They look soooooo different once they are painted. Could be an Edward. What do you think?




One more thing...thank you thank you thank you for ALL of your fabulous comments. You are the best!

Very cool!
Your latest looks like Jack Frost to me. Maybe just cuz he's so white right now.
Is he Paperclay?
The others look like something else?
I love seeing works in progress!

AAAhhh Finally! A Lady with attitude! She turned out Fabulous Daaahling! Amazing how they come to life with a little color!
Oh.. I think your guy looks very cool and Frenchy! He should be named something posh like, Pierre de Poupon... Jacques Mclovin or swanky, like I.M.A'luver!
Happy haunting!
