Recolllections of the past week.

Well, I go back to work today. But my productivity spurt with my art projects will not die down. I refuse! I follow a few artists, particularly doll makers, who practice this passion as a living and I would like nothing more than to do the same. Is it possible? Yes. How much will I need to put into it? A lot. My worst enemy is myself. I get distracted easily and lose interest in things easily. But saying that carves out my own destiny, right? I'm so excited. I got to do this!

Good thing I work in an arts store! Today I need to pick up some glaze for the eyes and mouth, more paint brushes and darker pencils. I am afraid to use such a dark tone on blond skin but I am going to go a deeper shade of grey pencil then seal with fixative and matte sealer. Only because in the photos the grey lines around the eyes and lips were barely visible. Let's bring it out with darker lines. Also need to research stronger wire the S-hooks and how to suede the joints. Not sure if I like the way suede looks on the joints and if I am hot gluing the joints yet to hold poses. And if hot glue, will it look messy inside? Experience will tell. Just typing out loud.

Bye!

P.S. - Future projects include smaller sculpts. Pendants/magnets/bangle in sketch book.
