Sculpting a baby
I finally found my camera!! It was beside my bed...I found it while flipping our mattress! lol
Remember how I said I wanted to sculpt a little bitty baby? Well I did it...and it's not nearly as good as the ones on the site I posted earlier, but it is my first. I am planning to heat it (as soon as I buy the toaster oven) to harden it, and then paint it so that ithat it will look more realistic. I'll also be making her a little diaper and maybe a Bonnet....its taken me a week to do what you see here:


I'll be posting more of this baby once it is finished....I may even sew a baby bed for it. LOL
Can you tell I've got babies on the mind?







For more babies you have got to check out this canadian artist - she makes minature babies out of clay and marzipan - they are adorable and lifelike http://www3.telus.net/camilleallen/camilleallen/camille_allen5.htm
I like your blog too - it's very nice.

Thank you for the link, Patty!...Camille is truly a talented sculptor...I would love to be able to create a clay baby that looked as natural as hers!
Thanks also for visiting my blog!

You have so much talent! This baby is so precious. I went to Camille Allen's site. It mentioned that the babies are not made of marzipan. Here is the url.

She's amazing! I've never tried sculpting, but if I ever do, this is exactly the type of subject I would want to sculpt. I adore those mini-babies. And the big ones.
