Storytelling is a very important aspect of my art as a narrative
mixed media artist. Creative Paperclay® helps me tell my stories by
being able to cast objects or create stamped shapes. Although I paint
the clay, I really love the beauty of it in the raw stage.

One
wing symbolizes in search of completion. I think we spend our life
searching to fill in our stories. Next comes the painting of my clay
areas. I start by coating them with polymer medium when they have dried.
On the body I applied a gold rub over the blue. The wing was painted
then I applied holographic foil to it using adhesive size. That it what
the white areas are on the crown.
Next step was to cast more objects. Once they are dry I will clean them up with either my dremel or SandIts then paint them.
