29 Faces #9 & #10

I decided to change things up a little and sculpt a face out of paper clay.  I enjoy doing this occasionally, and I find it fun to paint them too. And then I couldn't just photograph the face, so I had to add the hat and feathers and put it on this candlestick I've been saving for something. I actually like it this way I think, so it may become permanent.

This next one is just an exercise I was making myself do to try and loosen my grip on control. I just used a pen (gasp! no erasing!) and did a few quick swooshes.  I need to practice this kind of thing more, although I doubt I'll be posting much of it!

  5. The face on the candlestick is fantastic - I love it - it's so expressive. I haven't blogged for about 4 weeks and I can't believe how much I've missed - I've been looking back on your posts and you've done some amazing work - the faces are beautiful - I particularly love face #6 - I felt drawn to her, and went back several times to have another look - I would happily have her on my wall - so, so beautiful.
