"Sweet Harmony" Polymer Clay Sculpture

The singer stands about ten inches tall. All are Super Sculpey over copper and aluminum armature and brush painted with acrylics. I used lightweight mortar over hardware cloth for the wall and sidewalk, a picture frame for the window. The guitar is all balsa wood, toothpicks and thread. This one won a ribbon at the 2022 South Carolina State Fair, and was sold.

Ferrocement Totem Pole II

This is a two sided effort that stands about 8 ft. tall, made from a treated 4x4 post covered with hardware cloth and chicken wire. I've been using a mortar recipe that includes sand, clay dust, portland cement, builder's lime, joint compound, and asphalt emulsion. I used exterior wood stain to color it.

Ferrocement Totem Pole I

Made in 2022. This is a permanant installation -- an embedded 4x4 x 10 layered with hardware cloth and modeled with a ferrocement recipe that includes Portland cement, clay dust, builder's lime, and sand. Colored with exterior wood stain.

"Blues Cats I" Polymer Clay Sculpture

I was pleased with the diorama effects of an earlier piece and was going for something similar. The standing figure is about eleven inches tall, made of Super Sculpey over copper and aluminum armature, and brush painted with acylics.The back is made of three layers of luan, with the door and window cut from two, to give those features some depth. The siding, door, steps, etc. are either balsa or luan, and the turf is air dry clay. I cut the glass for the window and door from an old pane. This guitar is luan and balsa, toothpicks and thread.
