Sweet Sixteen

Here's a caricature sculpture of my lovely daughter,  Adelaide.  I didn't get it finished in time for her 15th  (finished three days after).  It'll finally go on top of her 16th birthday cake this Sunday!  She was a good sport about having her caricature done....like most of my victims, she's much more beautiful in real life!  Happy birthday Adelaide!

My Latest Clay Creations

A few of my latest clay cake toppers.  They were posted all around Australia and one to the U.K.

I'm working on a beach scene this afternoon.

A tissue paper flower

We're making tissue paper flowers in my after school art class today.  I hope they're not too fiddley for the younger children.  I got the idea from http://www.lollychops.com/ where she gives a tutorial.  I added some snipped then twisted green tissue to the centre which doubles as a stem.  Then wired and florist taped the stem so it can be positioned easily.

Gave my two last polymer clay modelling classes this week for term three.  As much as I love it, I'm looking forward to the school holidays!  Above are a few things the children have been creating in clay class...
