Clay..finally!

Yippe! I have moved on to clay now. Well it took a while to get the composition of the dough right, but all is well :P Designed and made a paper weight, might even make and sell such stuff in distant future. who knows?

Sing, buddy sing

I tried making the plasticine sing, i think i should move on to clay now.





Plasticine is good, but its always very 'soft', hence more chances of it getting disfigured even due to a gentle touch.

Another rose pin, made with fabric this time. Am officially sick of roses now :D

The Thinking man with roses

I think I will now move on to working with proper clay. Plasticine is good for practising though. I made a slightly abstract thinking man with it. This man is a little less worried than David's thinking man :D





I got a new stock of ribbons recently, mostly for making flowers. I made a few like this one ..



and attached them to hair pins. Now I have new rosy accessories. haah!

Something New...

...For me atleast.I was collecting my art supplies at a store when my eyes wandered towards the section where clay cakes were kept. Well it isnt clay actually, but its used for making fun models (for and by kids more than 5 yrs old.khi khi). So I promptly wend ahead and bought one.



I couldn't wait to get my hands on it :D Since it's the first time that I am attempting .... hmmm... sculpting? plz excuse the raw shapes.

Here is how he was made:











I am grinning from ear to ear :D

This and that

Since my sewing machine isn't going to join me for a couple of months (ho humm) and since i am yet to find a good hobby supplies store, kavisto is biting the dust. But hey, why not post abt some other things, like nature :P

I clicked these about a month ago and completely forgot abt them.








Oh, we also spotted snake skin. Love how the scales look up close. Thankfully the snake wasn't around when we took the pic of it's.. err leftover.



I passed by Channapatna (its famous for wooden toys and articrafts) so bought this cute keychain from there. Can't wait to visit that place again :P



These are from Mysore, now that's one place which really admires its elephants



p.s. Thank you for your congratulatory comments :)
