Here's my newest sculpt, a little wahine... It's my first "human" figure with this clay, you have to work a lot different than with the chavant that I'm used to. Too wet or too dry and the clay doesn't work very well, "leather hard" is when it's best to work. Then there is the drying period, too fast and it may crack.... The Moai started as something else and morphed into this, but did give me an idea for my next sculpt.... Not sure how I'll glaze her, any suggetions??

Anyway, I'm learnin a lot here, mahalo TCer's for all the help and inspiration.. :D

Mahalo for looking....
