STORMY DAY WIP FAIRY

Central Florida
the last three days have been stormy
I've watched the retention pond grow into a lake
I knew it was bad when the water birds
appeared

But the yard flooded
and the earth took a deep drink

and I saw faeries
in tiny boats

MORE WIP AND SANDING

She sits
been working on another fairy doll
a little bigger
bigger feet
still sanding
it is never ending, but very enjoyable
LOL

replaced her elbow joints with beads
like it better
found some great fabrics for her
fins and flooks

the possibilities of the Mermaid tail
make for endless combinations

already carved the base for the next one
clay seems to be easier on my hands
they don't hurt
my soft sculptured days
are becoming numbered
as I'm finding clay more interesting to use!
