At the point that I put bears on the shelf I was yearning 2 things: to experiement with sculpted doll making techniques and airbrushing to compliment my bears. Now that I have found my way back to bears I have still had that desire, and set about learning some new techniques, hence my absence form this blog for a short while. I have been studying online videos of doll sculpting and have found a good airbrushing video (haven't tried that yet)
After studying the videos each night for the past couple of weeks, today wasa the day to 'bite the bullet' and make a start. And so, I have spent this afternoon sculpting 2 doll heads, destined to be companions for bears ~ I think I have found my new theraputic heaven ~ working with the clay is so relaxing and forgiving.
Here are the first 2:
They are currently baking and should be ready for sanding tomorrow. They will then be ready for painting but I will probably leave that until next weekend when I have a better block of time to devote to the task.
Okay, I'm off to cook dinner and then work on another bear..........................

It's always good to try new things Leanne. The heads look interesting and I'm wondering what you have in store for us...will return to see them finished!
