School is done for the summer!

The girls are done with school! So of course they had to have their "School's done - let's party" party. So we had 12 girls last night for an overnighter. They all slept outside - well - don't really know if they slept.
In spite of that i still got a decent amount of work done today. I started out sculpting an Asian toddler because I had seen one that I had to do!! But without a photo I had to just memorize her face. I did but somehow the sculpt is much older than 18 months. So much for that. It is a good sculpt so I will finish her one of these days.
Tomorrow I hope to sculpt another head- this time it will just be a pretty brown-eyed girl. But who knows.....sometimes magic happens and sometimes it doesn't.!

Waiting

Gee, time goes so fast and I forget to write....
Just to let you know I am still busy working away but I haven't finished anything since the last piece!!!
I have a bunch of heads again that are waiting to get some arms and legs....grrrrrr....I always think I will just work on one piece at a time....
I have to go now....the beautiful weather is calling me. I am going for a walk in the wind. At least the sun is shining!!!
Do you wonder why I can't get more done?

Visit by my nephew

I got a nice surprise visit by my very talented nephew, Jason Grangroth! He is a wildlife artist living in Colorado. He has been getting his paintings into galleries and expanding his collector base. You can see his work at: www.jasongrangrothstudios.com.

Almost finished....

This is the almost-finished doll that I am finishing up! (See head on the right in picture below!) And you can't tell in this picture but she doesn't have any hair on the back of her head.
Besides her hair getting done (well, it is done as I write...) I am making her a cushion to sit on.
Now I have to quit and get ready for my daughter's graduation and party tomorrow night...she is getting an LPN degree!!
Better get cleaning...

White dress

I spent yesterday sewing most of the day. It is for the doll head pictured in the previous photo on the right. I made her a white silk dress and hopefully she will be done by early this week.
