Sculpting- a real challenge
I admire all the ladies I know who sculpt. There really truly is a trick to it that I have yet to learn. Maybe I am too impatient for results as good as the ones I see and like. Then too perhaps I will NEVER learn to do it well. I am trying to finish up a little photo cube box and have sculpted a tiny black cat with a tiny camera in his hand and a witches hat on his head. He is turning out OK but not like I invisioned when I began. Usually --( this is a profound statement) - IF I CAN VISUALIZE IT I CAN CREATE IT. Do any of you seem to be able to do that also? Well, I could sort of see with my minds eye the kitty but the finsihed kept changing. Poop! I will put him up for bid never the less. I am happy to ahve a bid on my table. Boy oh boy there sure are a lot of hours in this one.

I agree with you Susie, it must take a LOT of patience! Like how some artists can get their work so smooth and not so chunky looking. I'm still learning too. I bet your cat is going to look great! I am also working on a photo box. I would have never thought to use a cat with a camera. What a clever idea! I can't wait to see it. I do love your little table, I'm sure it will do awesome! Your work is really great!!

Thanks Jamie. I will post the photo cube on Saturday I think. I like those little boxes and they lend themselves to many applications.
