The Guardians

As I've mentioned before, I belong to an art group that meets monthly and is made up of a collection of wonderfully creative women.  Each month a member volunteers to teach and share either a project or technique with the group.  Quite a while ago, my friend, Joanne shared a fabulous small goddess figure with the group.  We made these enchanting figures out of polymer clay--mostly using Sculpey, which is easy to work with.  Here's the goddess I made in that learning session (I added the beaded and wire embellishments at home)...her name is Persephone.

I had so much fun creating this little figure, that I made 2 more.  I decided that they are Guardians.  So here are the next 2 I made...

Guardian of Soft Sunsets

And being a watery Cancer with an affinity for mermaids...

Ocean Spirit

As you can see, I love to add wire, beads and  lots of texture to the basic polymer clay figures.  These guardians were just too much fun to make...I've got a few more ready to fancy up...stay tuned!

Ciao for now,
