MOLD MAKING TRY #3
Got up early and poured the other half of my molds
drying on racks
waiting to lift the piece out of mold
two molds will be three parters
so I will be pouring again in a few days
a long process
but looking forward to being successful
on the third try
while waiting for molds to dry
a little sewing for my friend's dolls

NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH THE DAY JOB
A very busy day for the Captains of Sea Tow Central Florida Lakes
plane crash in Lake Jessup
once the airbags are placed
the long tow in to the Marina
Meanwhile
I stayed dry promoting safe boating
Loaner program
life jackets save lives
the pilot only received a few scratches
after the crash
he waded to shore

FINALLY GETTING SOMEWHERE
In my quest to make perfect plaster molds
I took a ride into Orlando
to visit the Super Lego Store
I just love living so close to all things Mickey Mouse
also I had a lesson from my friend Crystal, who creates amazing porcelain dolls
on Mold making
here are the 1st half drying
my very first poured slip head from one of my molds
YAY
cracked a little, but for me a success!!
Now it will all be practice and lots of drying and patience
ARRGGHHH

A WEEK OF SCULPTING
Getting ready to cast again
doll pieces prep for molds
sculpted two more dolls
with different ball joints
also first sculpt without inside core
took a year to get to this point
I prefer all the great Japanese paper clays
sculpting is getting easier
starting to develop a style
of primitive ball jointed dolls
evenings of sewing tiny dresses for my littles
