Here's what's in the studio this week - another beautiful belly sculpture (belly cast). Such a different form, and so beautiful, each one. I'm already starting to get booked to do casts, and to "upgrade" home-kits done locally. It's so exciting. Every day I can hardly wait to head down to the studio, which is so wonderful to experience again. Maybe I'll have to start thinking about redecorating the studio, now that it's not just me down here anymore. ;)
So far, I'm referring to this cast as the "Owl belly" because the mom was drawn to owls during her pregnancy. Next step will be to finalize the sketch on the sculpture/bellycast and then paint it.
Here it was in the "raw" - an untouched cast, not reinforced, no hanger, not trimmed, no flower.
I can't wait to see the finished product! "I'm Ooooopening" :o)
Crystal your work is stunning. Congratulations on the new addition to your family. Pregnancy is such a special time and it's interesting to see the work you are doing with the casts. I also love the Wedding Thank you card and the sketches.
