This was a fun one.

Since I have gone into the OOAK sculpting business on Ebay, it has been really slow.
I intend to keep sculpting no matter what but it is proving costly. Luckily we are not bad off enough where I cannot afford supplies like clay every couple weeks. I can keep sculpting, but I believe the sculpts I choose to auction may be limited to what I find to be outrageously wonderful!
Ebay is increasing its final value fees which really encroaches on any profit one might make in this already dieing market.
For an artist it is still the best we can hope for. Galleries charge so phenomenally more its like you make nothing in the end.

Some of my latest work entering the month of May!

I finished a couple projects this week that I really like. The bouquet of flowers are my kids. They are awesome lil people and now they are forever sculpted into clay:). I really enjoyed working on this one. Although I wished I hadn't started it for another week or so. I was just getting used to the clay I was using. I started with my son Caden's face and his doesn't look as much like him as the other flowers look like their children.I am overall happy with it though.

Then there is the Dryad. I like making her too. I painted her differently. I used water mixable oils to get her skin tone and shading by watering them down and doing light layers of color. It ended up looking wonderful. Considering she was all beige transparent when I started painting her.

My newest sea bound beauty. The Orca Sea Witch.

These sea witches are much larger than the regular merfolk. They cause devastation to all sea faring vessels that trip into their waters.

Since before the stone-chiseled histories of the Dwarven Kings, and even before the events recounted in Elven song, there have been Dragons and Fairies. They wove their path among the heavens for millennia upon millennia, sharing countless adventures, in a time before the known Worlds had been dreamed into existence.

Created by the Dragon Mother L'miae herself, the first fairies served as Companions to L'miae and her mate, M'Per'tor. Known as Draconis Comites, they were beautiful creatures, flawless in every aspect, even by the Dragon Mother and Serpent Lord's standards, though they looked nothing like their creator. She gave them a slender appearance, with smooth, supple skin instead of scales. Their faces appeared flat where there should have been a snout. Instead of fangs, they had small, flattened, teeth. She carved each Companion's form out of the Life Essence with great care, never tiring, always as patient as the first time. Ages came and went, with the knowledge of how to make these Companions being passed down to those dragons most gifted in the use of Magic and manipulation of the Life Essence.

By the time Dragon-kin descended from the heavens, L'miae and her mate, M'Per'tor, had long since answered The Calling, weaving their Spirit-force into the very fabric of the Universe itself, and all but the weakest of Dragons could make their own Companions. However, by this time, for a majority of Dragons, nobility and wisdom had given way to greed and enjoyment of the suffering of others. Now known as Draconis Vernulae, no longer Companions, but rather slaves, the primary purpose of fairies had become as Guardians to their Serpentine masters, particularly for when a dragon fell into their Sopire Animus, their Spirit Sleep during which a dragon was most vulnerable. Such periods of dormancy could last a hundred years, and it took days, sometimes even weeks, to awaken.

This is Twii, my first creation in my line of Battle Fairy's. It was a long and arduous task but she is completed. She is first of a line of One of a Kind Art dolls. I had fun Making her and I hope that soon she will have a new and appreciative home.She is approximately 10" tall on a base that is 10" long by 7.5" wide.

This OOAK original was hand sculpted by me and has been made out of polymer clay with a wire mesh skeleton completely hand painted from head to toe with acrylic paints and varnished with a satin finish. She has detailed hands and feet with fingernails. No molds were used to create her or taken from her. She is and will always be One of a Kind.

Her eyes are hand painted cultured freshwater pearls and hair is from the softest Tibetan lambs wool. I gave her 2 braids on either side of her head fixed together at the ends in back and a nice twist in the middle to give her a little bit of a geisha look. I purposely did not permanently fix her hair so that you may do so with little trouble if you wish to.Or you can leave her as is, her hair do will stay put just fine. Leg wraps are 24k gold wrapped steel wire with a few small micro beads adorning the back ties behind her knees . Her scantily clad bodice is made from micro beads as well.

Her wings are made of Angelina film and micro beads on a wire frame. The wings are removable (just remember beads facing her head when you put them in). They may be permanently attached by the new owner by sliding them in the holes on her back with a spot of glue on the end of the inserted wire. (remember to position them the way you want forever if you attach them permanently).

The base is a polymer clay sculpture (the gold mound) with some coins embedded into it and amethyst mounted on top under her arms. Around the mound is autumn colored lichen with some synthetic greenery mixed in. All this is fixed onto a painted pine wood slab.
