Today I am starting a new piece- a polymer clay and kelp vessel. Here's the preliminary sketch- there may be four supporting muses- I'll determine that later on.
Shelley Poole, a clay friend from Vancouver mailed this massive light bulb to me several years ago and she told me she thought I could come up with a good use for it. It has been hanging by my desk all this time encouraging me to come up with a "bright idea".
Today it will be used as a form for weaving the kelp Thanks Shelley!
I soaked the kelp yesterday and it's lovely and leathery today....
Work begins!
