After about 5 years of feeling out of step with my muse and a lack of inspiration,<br />
I feel like I'm back to hearing my muse. Happy dance!<br />
I created a couple of pieces in my typical style, and have now decided that I need to move on. At my stage of life I am paring down and I want/need to reflect that in my art. Here are new pieces created in the style I am known for...<br />

The inspiration for this piece came from a bone that I found. I held it up and it looked just like a corset to a dress...and so that is what it became.<br />
So energy is pouring through me and I can't stop sculpting. I have been invited to show in a art doll show in Petaluma in July and a new gallery is opening in Santa Fe and wants to show case my pieces. Oh my gosh...I feel like I'm back from the dead!<br />
Here's a piece I'm working on now:<br />

Stay tuned for updates. I worked on her more today. Painted her white...added crackle glaze and then pasted on bits of paper from a french book . I have to figure out how to add wings that I found from an antique hat, made in Paris, years and years ago. Such fun!<br /><br />

"I am a Garden Growing". </blockquote>
I'm not sure where this idea came from, as it was created in pure inspiration, and just took me along for the ride. I found the 1/2 gourd in my stash and pulled out the mosaic mirror tiles in the colors of the chakra system. Such beautiful color!<br />

Then I sculpted her face and created her cap in the crown chakra colors. I like to paint my faces white....not sure why, but it has something to do with representing the mask we all wear.</blockquote>

Rumbling around in my supply closet ( that spans 40 years of collecting ) I found these wonderful glass flowers and leaves, probably from a chandelier dating from the 1800's. I am noticing that it has been hard for me to use some of my collected treasures, so I am now making a conscious effort to use everything that I have collected, instead of saving it...for what! So I added flowers & leaves to the edges of the gourd and thus she became a Garden Growing....bright with color, energy and intention.<br />

The trim that lines the edges of the gourd, and around the base is also from the late 1800's. The wooden base is decoupaged with handwritten French sheet music....found on one of my trips to Paris.<br />
Her arms were sculpted and dressed with antique gold metallic lace, which I also have kept for years and years. It's so beautifully handmade. What ballgown did this lace adorn?

It was wonderful and charming and whimsical. When I first started doing art work, Rabbits were what I created.<br />
Rabbit Princes, in all shapes and sizes....1, 2, 4, 5 ft tall.<br />

Sculpted from polymer clay and apoxie sculpt, I used a conch shell for her body, and a smaller conch shell to hold the abundance of babies on her back. I covered her with French printed papers, and added a crackle glaze. Today....hmmm...embellishment begins. :)<br />

Aloha is the word for "hello" and for "goodbye". We are saying goodbye to Hawaii, for now.<br />
And heading back to the green hills of Sebastopol. From one paradise to another. Hello!<br />

We live on a 7 acre property in Northern California, that we share with two of our three daughters and their families. 5 of our 7 grand daughters live here, with us....so lots of energy. <br />
There are 3 houses on this property....a big one, a medium one, and a little cottage where we live.<br />
It's just about 650 sq ft, nestled among the giant redwood trees. I love coming home to Sebastopol.<br />

Even though it's only mid February, spring is singing her song! <br />
The yellow acacia trees are brilliant in their bloom....the daffodils are everywhere, along with the wild mustard and yellow sour grass blossoms. <br />
Bright yellow against the apple green grass.<br />

The flowering plum blossoms are heart stopping! When my children were small, we would make a game of calling and counting what they called the popcorn trees...pinks and whites everywhere, along with the beautiful pink flowering magnolia blossoms.<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://tinyurl.com/h7t2rq9">Kai Mana Orbs</a> are created from coconut shells & shards that I find on the beach
in Hawaii. The shapes are wonderfully random and very inspiring. After
cleaning and drying them, I take them into the studio and embellish with
found objects, sea shells, crystals and beads. <br />
I call them Kai Mana
Orbs because the name for the sea in Hawaiian is "Kai"....the word for
power is "Mana". "Orb" is defined as a noun, as a celestial body... and
as a verb, to encircle or enclose. These coconut shards are powerful
in the vibrations of nature that they hold and that they contain. The
power of the Palm Tree, strong against the trade winds, as it bends and
never breaks. The power of the Sea....with thunderous winter waves,
gentle summer seas....the Kai Mana Orbs carry this power...a celestial
orb on the earth's shore. If you have a moment, read more about this <a href="http://tinyurl.com/h7t2rq9">Mana Orb in my Etsy shop. <b>http://tinyurl.com/h7t2rq9</b></a></td></tr>

Walking along the beach, there are broken coconut shells to be picked up...each one a wonderful and intriguing shape. Each one comes out so different. I call them Mana Orbs because Mana means "power" in Hawaiian....and I know these shells hold the power of the sea...the power of inspiration....and the power of creation.

We've been here about 10 days now and we pinch ourselves every we return to Kawela Bay. We've lived here almost 20 years and it never stops filling our senses and our spirits.<br />

This studio space is so wonderful! It's up on a second story, with two large double sliding doors that look out over Kawela Bay. The light is happy and bright and there's something about being up high that feels expansive to me. So I've cleaned up...re-organized...and I'm ready to begin. On what, I do not know. :)As Seen Thru My Eyeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16348156422137140207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4736054344288289770.post-69241300755752079292016-01-23T11:49:00.001-08:002016-01-23T11:49:38.306-08:00My Etsy ShopI'm not quite sure how to do Etsy...I opened a shop years ago, but I've never really listed anything until today.

<br />The back of each of the three of these Angels is covered with a vintage piece of sheet music with a hanger attached. You can get a feel for the size of each piece by noticing that it fits in my out-stretched hand.<br />

<br />
I'm back in Hawaii. It is place of inspiration for me. I don't know what it is, exactly...the velvet air...the blue sky...the water....the isolation from the "maddening crowds" ( although, once I leave Kawela Bay, the increase in traffic and tourists is disturbing )....but whatever it is, Kawela Bay is magical. <br />
We rent our home as a vacation rental for some of the year, so when I return I have to touch and replace everything, in order to reclaim my space. <br />
One of my favorite moments is when I re-arrange my "treasure table". <br />
On this old wooden table, I love to place things that I have collected or found over the years. <br />
Placing them in juxtapositions....laying one on another....creating vignettes. <br />
I LOVE doing this and it always places me in the "zone". <br />

This amazing scarab was gifted to me during one of my art retreats. I treasure this...and love to place it on the old wooden gypsy wagon arrow. "Wisdom this way...."<br />

I had started another blog cause I couldn't get on this one....but now that I'm logged on, I think I'll stay with this one. Sorry to have you bouncing back and forth.<br />
So...I'm going to post photos that I had posted on the other blog...<br />
This is what I've created so far...still more to do.... <br />

I'm having a great time creating these smaller pieces...heads and torsos attached to a small square of wood that can be hung on the wall. With these, I get to create what I love to create...head dresses. :) And I can offer these at a lower price since I can sell direct and since they are smaller than my art dolls. Anyway...that's my thought for now. I'll open my Etsy store soon. <br />

“Deep Within” by Marilyn Radzat<br />
<br />
This was such a interesting piece to create because it just came together on it's own, telling me where to put the next stroke of paint and piece of glass. I first painted the lady on canvas and then cut that out and mounted it on wood. More paint was then added to the wood, both on the middle piece and on each of two side pieces.<br />
It has a 3 dimensional feel because of the tempered glass that I used and because of the bird skull used as part of her head dress.<br />
This piece of art has a kind of "ancient" feel because of the crackle glazing that I did and because of depth that the tempered glass adds. I love this piece...I hope you do too! :)<br /> <br />Center piece: 12.5 x22 Side pieces, each: 7.5” x 23.4” Mounted together: 28.6” wide x 23.4” high<br />Original painting, acrylic on canvas, mounted on wood. Side pieces are Koa wood from Hawaii.<br />Tempered glass laid over hidden <a href="http://www.marilynradzat.com/galleryI.html">Reiki blessing symbol.</a><br />Antique French letters found in a Paris flea market<br />screen pieces<br />bird skull<br />Red seeds ( from African tulip tree, thought to bring good luck )<br />Swarovski rhinestones<br />Metal antler pieces<br />Hand carved antique wood pieces on top and bottom of center piece.<br />Antique keys gathered in France from Parisian flea markets<br />

I have found that I love to paint...after 40 some years of sculpting, I find it's thrilling to be experimenting with new techniques...it's freeing...it's challenging...it's evident when I'm in my head...and it feels great when I'm not. I've been painting now for about 4 years and I feel I'm ready to offer some pieces that I love, for sale...<br />
so I'll post them here and on Instagram and see if these paintings can find their new home.<br />

I apologize. <br />
Here are close-ups of my lastest painting. "Blessings". Now I will pack it up and ship it to The Chalk Farm Gallery in Santa Fe, New Mexico.<br />
There are 3 separate panels.<br />
Each panel is 36” tall x 24”….so the total size is 6’ by 3’.<br />
I'm really happy with this piece....the textures, the colors, the use of glass.<br />
Now to create a new piece. Oh boy!<br /><br />

After curing for at least 24 hours, I will add a sealer and then apply finishing touches....Stay tuned. :)<br />

It's been so long since I wrote on my blog, that I've forgotten how much I enjoy sharing my work and my thoughts! <br />
<br />
Lately, I had been asked to share photos of my art work on my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/marilyn.radzat">Face Book page,</a> and so over the last 10 days I've been looking back over all the years...and enjoying the different stages and the progress of my work, with the perspective of time. I feel so much gratitude that I found the medium of clay all those years ago.<br />
<br />
Over the past couple of years, I've begun to dabble in painting. I really like that I don't know how to paint, and that there is a new learning curve for me. <br />
It's frustrating, but challenging.... and I had been missing that in my doll art. <br />
And now I have fallen in love with painting. <br />
<br />
I
took an online class from <a href="https://ye203.infusionsoft.com/go/BT/MarilynRadzat">Flora Bowley </a>and I learned so much,
particularly about building up interesting background layers.<br />
I love online classes. I love that I can gather tips and methodology from painters who have developed a style that I respond to, and then I can take what they share and interpret it in my own way. When I began in the art doll world, there were no classes, no sharing on Facebook or on the internet, so it took many many years of trial and error to formulate and find products and methods that worked for me. <br />
In one way, that was a blessing because I developed my own style and enjoyed the challenge of learning over the many years. However, now that I am older, and time is more precious..... and I have this strong desire to paint.....I so appreciate those that will share what works so that I can jump start my painting journey. <a href="https://ye203.infusionsoft.com/go/BT/MarilynRadzat">Flora Bowley's class</a> is such a gift. Her style is interesting, and her method for building up interesting layers of background is fun and easy to learn..... and then allows me to go wherever I wish with my own style. If you've ever wanted to paint and didn't know where to begin, I highly recommend taking her <a href="https://ye203.infusionsoft.com/go/BT/MarilynRadzat">course</a>.<br />
And if you do...let me know what you think.<br />
<br />
Here are some paintings I've done recently. I'll post my new work in progresses here on my blog. <br />
<br />
It's good to be back chatting with you, here on my blog. I've missed this sharing...... :) Let me know what you've been up to.<br />
xoxo<br />
Marilyn :)<br />

And this will be my
last class for a while as I am going to take a break....time to refuel.<br /> </a><a href="http://www.aforartistic.com/the-chariot-with-marilyn-radzat-niada-artist.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.aforartistic.com/the-chariot-with-marilyn-radzat-niada-artist.html</a> <br />
The class started on Dec 3rd and runs through Jan 14th, however you can
download the lessons and work at your own pace. It's a great class
offering lessons in sculpting, painting and working with apoxie sculpt
and mosaic…so it's an all around class.</div>

Hope to see you there.... </div>

The blog <a href="http://willows95988.typepad.com/tongue_cheek/2013/09/saturday-art-saves-marilyn-radzat.html">"Tongue in Cheek" </a>is one that I have followed for years. Corey is a woman who was raised in California, met a French man, and moved to France 25 years ago. To say that she has a gift for writing is an understatement. I love reading her blog.<br /><br />When I first discovered her blog, France was something that was far out of my reach of making a reality….but somehow, her writing and sharing slowly and gently opened the doors for that far off vision to become a reality.<br />
I just returned from my 4th trip to France.<br />
<br />Last year she decided to randomly choose 7 people and open her home to each of them…and a friend…to come and stay with her in the south of France, for a week. I was one who was chosen! <br />
It didn't work out for me to stay with her this trip, but as fate would have it, Corey was in Paris when I was, and we did meet for a wonderful lunch and dinner and I got to visit her apartment that she is renovating in Paris. She shares a new artist each Saturday on her blog and at our lunch she asked if she could share my art. And so…today she did. <br />
<br />
I love serendipity !<br />
".... the consequence of serendipity is sometimes a brilliant discovery: (happy) chance, (happy) accident, fluke; luck, good luck, good fortune, fortuity, providence; happy coincidence." <br />
<br />
All those years ago, discovering Corey's blog, and reading it daily.....traveling to France in my mind, created threads that connected us.....and when we met, in France, it was like we had always known each other. Serendipity. <br />
The magic of Life.<br />

My class in creating a MaryHoonie is beginning soon. <a href="http://www.aforartistic.com/maryhoonie.html"> http://www.aforartistic.com/maryhoonie.html</a><br />It is made up of two lessons and is a great way to prepare for another class coming in June called <a href="http://www.aforartistic.com/Pandora.html">"Pandora and the Seven Sins."</a><br />Of all my pieces, Pandora is one of my very favorites. <br />I love the size….and the complexity and inter-action of the piece. It's just fun! And always makes me smile.<br />Choose your "Sin" for the day by reaching into Pandora's belly! :)<br />This piece was published in a wonderful article in the Spring 2009 issue of Art Doll Quarterly.<br />"Pandora" sits on a turntable base so that the piece can be turned to show all the Sins, when they are out of Pandora's belly. ( and "Hope" which always is there, safe within ) The lessons include directions in sculpting, painting, costuming, creating a base, collage work, and the art of the final touches. The materials will include apoxie sculpt, paverpol, polymer clay, and many of the products that I have come to trust and use, over the years. It is divided into two parts: First, Creating Pandora and then creating the individual Sins.<br /><br />I have used a gourd to create Pandora, however, if gourds are difficult to come by, you could use two plastic bowls for the form. One for the lower part of her body and one for the upper part of her body. Then you could create her torso out of aluminum foil. I'm not sure if the hinging would work with the plastic bowls, but that isn't really necessary. I have found, with foil and apoxie sculpt, one can do anything! :) And if you decide to use this alternative, just contact me with questions and I can add directions in the forum or through email.<br /><br />Hope you can join the fun! <a href="http://www.aforartistic.com/Pandora.html">http://www.aforartistic.com/Pandora.html </a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><br />As Seen Thru My Eyeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16348156422137140207noreply@blogger.com0
