For whatever reason my muse is not yet done with the dragons. The second one – a gold – is in the oven and in process of being made. The base for the third one is complete, waiting for the dragon to be born.
I’m seeing sea dragons – blues, greens, purples and aquas. [...]

The Dragon – he is done!!! What an adventure and learning curve!

So this little adventure is not without it’s mishaps, sidesteps and curve-balls. During one of the curing sessions, having attached the hind leg and forearm on the one side, the head broke off. I promise you St George was no where near! No swords, no maidens in distress or anything of the [...]

Okay, I’m caught – hook, line and sinker!!! I’ve been making more lighter covers and covered bottle openers. Even tried the screenprinting today. It’s awesome!
I find myself looking at little tins and containers in a completely different way. I even went shopping this morning to find things to cover!! Couldn’t find more bottle [...]
