WIP Angel relief
She has been a very slow but fulfilling process... I have much rework to do and am only 1/4 of the way down.. As is with my past reliefs, no molds or stencils are ever used.. Original design from my mind's eye... I usually do a sketch so I have a reference... the background was created with mixed media, the relief work accomplished with paper clay, a few tools and my favorite tool, my fingers.
I love the feel of this clay... I will add more WIP photos to this post as I go along.
Wishing all that celebrate Thanksgiving a joyful one.
I am blessed for so many things, most importantly my children, family and you my friends.
Thank you all for making this year a special one.
blessings,
Penny
