Faerie Slumber
Posted on | March 25, 2010 | 1 Comment
I thought I’d share a new little piece I’ve been working on. It’s a faerie child wrapped in a maple leaf and asleep in an oak leaf cradle. The faerie is 3″ long and was sculpted using Kato clay with Genesis heat set oils for added color. I really prefer this clay now for sculpting as it is very strong and if properly conditioned doesn’t moon at all, and the color when cured is beautiful.



I miss sculpting these miniature fantasy pieces and will add her into my Etsy shop along with more wearable art pieces.
I’m also working on a pair of Nature Spirit earrings for my April giveaway coming up soon. I’ve not done earrings with the faerie faces before so these should be a treat. Add to that they are Birch leaves and very sacred leaves to faerie and pagan culture, and with Beltane coming up will be a wonderful addition to someone’s wardrobe. Here’s a sneak peak of them in progress!
