I've started and almost finished another piece - she is an Enchantress casting and enchantment.
I had alot of trouble making her and almost gave up and threw her away at several points - she is just a little to big to fit comfortably in my small clay oven and burnt during baking a couple of times meaning I had to amputate her legs and rebuild them aswell as having to reposition her arms twice! I'm glad now that I didn;t give up on her as making her costume was alot of fun and I'm really pleased with how it turned out.
She is almost done now - just her base to finish. I am undecided as yet whether to enter her into the International Art Doll Registry May show - the theme is "Ancient Magic" - if time permits I have an idea for another piece that I may enter instead.
There are lots of work in progress pictures - click on the photo below to see them.
