Getting Back To...

-












I rarely do in the process pics. Mostly cause I don't think to do it. But, for this project I had my camera near by. This is another in my tea/coffee cup creature series. This guy is going to be a coffee goblin. His whole reason for being is to make your coffee bitter. You defenently don't want this guy to show up in your coffee maker. He is an inspriation from the Spiderwick Chronicle series. The doll club I belong to locally is having a challenge based on the Spiderwick series. This will be the first of several, I hope. This is the intial sculpt before I get to the refinement stage. Hopefully, he'll be finished for the opening of a show where I will be the featured artist. I will post more on that a bit later in the week.


A big thank you to all of you who keep coming back and checking out my space here.

Hi Cody,
Your goblin is wonderful. You do such beautiful work.....But, Im a coffee drinker, so hopefully he won't be slipping into by cup! I enjoyed your blog.

What an imaginative idea, and so faithful to Spyderwick! I would tell him how delightful he is, but will refrain for fear he interprets that to be an invitation to join me for coffee..

More please!

Thanks Kai,Judia, Cat and others,

I appreciate the feedback. He is the first of many I hope to come. I just finished sculpting another House Goblin pair whom are trying to tease cats. I will post when I get a pic. Cat the eyes are made out of hand blown glass marbles. I plan on painting puples in.

ADO Art Dolls Only Elements Challenge - Water

OK , without further ado here is my entry for the ADO Art Dolls Only challenge The Elements . Please go visit the ADO blog to see some of the great entries for this challenge. Introducing for the first time anywhere, the Mergoblin . He is the first of his kind to grace my blog and studio. Several of his relatives are planning a visit real soon. He is a polymer clay one of a kind sculpt. He has a recycled head that was made for an earlier project. The eyes are fresh water pearls that have been dyed. His tail is made from a type of willow tree. I know the photography isn't spectacular but, I wanted to get him up on the blog in time. Here is a closer view of his head area. This is the other side view. He is mounted on a wooden base suspended by a wire inserted into a brass tube. I painted the brass tube blue to match the stand. This was a fun challenge that got me to think outside my usual box. Hope you enjoy him.
