A sculpting I will go, a sculpting I will go....
Just a small selection of the many skulls that will be used this Halloween. The large one in the lower center will likely end up as a Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) skull, as it's got a certain innate character of such to it.
The three on top were made from a fab glow in the dark polymer clay that I was not so sure of in the beginning because it was very soft, like trying to sculpt a marshmallow! Once I mastered it, however, and baked 'em in the oven, I was pleased with the results. Plus they glow a really cool greenish hue! Mark created the one in the upper center, BTW. I tore off a small chunk of the stuff, handed it over to him, and commanded him to sculpt a skull. I like his, it's got a definite unique charm! Not bad for a first timer, eh?
Back again... have painted a couple of these today. Boy, it was fun sitting home alone in my studio on this chilly, blustery day, listening to Halloween music and creating cool seasonal art. I could get used to this, I tell you!

I think they are all quite charming.
Thank you so much, Vivienne!
I had a really good time creating them. Kind of sent me into a relaxed zone.... OHMMMM!
