Off to see the wizard......




Gail and I are off to a 4 day seminar to step into the matrix!
I'm bringing my computer so I can share it all with you.

How fun is that!  I love a good adventure!   http://www.matrixenergetics.com/WhatIs.aspx

Matrix Energetics sometimes appears magical in its expression but is based on the laws and expression of subtle energy physics and the concepts and laws of quantum physics, superstring theory and Sheldrake's Morphic Resonance. 

Here we go....down the rabbit hole......byyyyyeeeeeeeeee......

It's Kobain's turn to add to the mushroom......




A day with Ava and the mushroom project.......
















We are beginning our mosaic at the top, just under Mr. Caterpillar, with bits of ceramic and glass flowers that I found at the swap meet.  We'll decide on the placement of the oyster shells  when we get lower down on the mushroom.  I've run out of apoxie sculpt, so I have to wait for my shipment to arrive.....

"Day Dream Believer"















Here she is. :)   
I have named this piece "Day Dream Believer".   I can just imagine her standing in front of a mirror....gazing at her image and loving what she sees......and dreaming of the day that she is presented to the world.

14-1/2" tall.  An original sculpt in Prosculpt clay.  Hand painted eyes.  Head piece is created with tiny shells and micro beads, and then embellished with antique wax bridal flowers, glass leaves, netting and fabric leaves.
Her gown is made of antique metallic lace and netting.  It is embellished with the tiny wax flowers, fabric leaves and again, bits of antique silk bridal netting.  

Running down her back is a train of apoxie sculpt clay ( for support and strength ) covered with antique handmade lace and finished with irridescent powders.
Her wings are tiny wire and metal mesh pieces, embellished with wax flowers.
The antique netting that runs along the edge of her train and forms her skirt has been sealed and strengthened with a fabric hardener and then painted with irridescent paint.

Her base is a mosaic of soft blue glass tiles, sea shells, micro beads, glass leaves and rhinestones.








tiny wax flowers and lace.....

Flea Market Find!

Look what I found at the flea market today!  Isn't he cute!  Made of metal, his name on his collar is Little Spike.



I had found this metal cat sculpture a couple of years ago....


So now they can be friends....I love the flea market!

Mushroom mosaic ....

Only had time to lay out a possible plan for my oyster shell mosaic, but I think it's going to look great! :)   In between I could plant moss or thyme...but could I get it to grow?  
That is the question.....
