Spookier Muses: Poe and The Raven

This piece is in the early stage. I usually sculpt with coloured clays, but I plan to paint this piece a dark, shiny black. I may attach several small hearts to its head, or maybe I will decorate it like a Day of the Dead sugar-skull. For now, though, I am playing with some of the Picnik (sic) photo editing software. Have a looksy!

Quoth the Raven!

Spookier Muses: Poe and The Tell Tale Heart Earrings

Tell Tale Heart Earrings

I've written a new "information section" blurb while thinking about adding a small bio to my inserts. Here it is, the blurb, not the bio:

Sculptures of anatomy and whimsy from my fingers to your world. Small works of art composed of polymer clay, found objects and imagination! Currently working on fanciful owls, twinkling twigs and anatomically inspired bits of my mind.
 Here is my latest project, inspired by Edgar Allen Poe. I'll be headed to Maryland in a month and may have to visit some Poe related sites in Baltimore while I'm home!
