I am just getting into using Sculpey polymer clay, and I decided to make some sculptures of my psychiatrist’s dogs for him. These are them at two different angles! :)

Sculpey Puppy I Made for a Friend

I just made this little sculpey puppy for one of my friends. She loves dogs and has some that are white and fluffy. The puppy is actually really tiny and it was difficult to get all of the fur on. I’m still going to try to figure out how to do it more efficiently perhaps. This is one of the first sculpey sculptures I’ve made and today is the first day of using it! So far it is really fun! :)

I just drew this spring picture on my iPad! I’m really enjoying all the apps! :) I was inspired by a friend’s photo on facebook that showed the beginnings of Spring with a pic of a tree in bloom. The tree didn’t really look like this, but it was still my inspiration.

Review: The Shiniest Jewel-A Family Love Story

Adoption, Art, Books, Cartoon, Families, Family, Graphic Novel, Illustrated, Kristin Bell, memoir

“The Shiniest Jewel: A Family Love Story,” by Marian Henley is a graphic novel that you won’t want to put down! The story of adoption, life, love, etc. told in adorable cartoons. If you have never read a graphic novel, you should start with this one. You won’t be disappointed. Maybe you are thinking “I’m an adult, I don’t do cartoon books! I need small type, 500+ pages and footnotes to believe I’m really reading.” haha. Don’t be silly. Really, you don’t need to prove to anyone how serious a reader you are! Indulge in some chocolate here! Besides, this book IS serious!
