In the summer, I think of ravens. They are huge here, and very majestic. I just wish they weren't so LOUD! Peter Woytuk gives them the dignity and presense they deserve in his sculptures...
I am in a Doll and Puppet mode these days, so I seem to be finding lots of similar links. These miniature babies by Camille Allen are truly amazing. Like little pearls they are precious and beautiful... so sweet!
I have always been intrigued by these old Victorian 'Seashell' dolls. Just look at the pretty lady with a matching chair! You don't see them very often. They seem like a perfect summer craft, if one is vacationing by the ocean... These were available through Theriault's Auction House.
This was a small class with big ambitions... I even had one student who took the medium to a whole new level and made wonderful little 3/D boxes and shrines! Just look at all the work they did...
These wonderful ceramic pieces are by Diana Fayt. I just love the hand-drawn look, as if she went and made them out in a field of wildflowers! She also has just started a Blog, full of wonderful information... (found on Karin's Blog)
