My latest, done with my left hand (I'm semi-ambidextrous but the left hand is out of practice).

^ If that's what you can do with your left hand, I'd love to see what you can do with your right. It reminds me of van Gogh for some reason.

Thanks! Van Gogh is my favorite artist. I wasn't consciously trying to imitate his style, but the way he painted and the way I see things are similar enough that my style is likely to resemble his if I develop enough skill. So that's a huge compliment, thanks a lot!

Clicking the image takes you to my tumblr, where there's more recent art (more at the bottom than the top). If you're really interested. : )

I like your piece and yes I do like Van Gogh as well!

Every one has wonderful work here... I love the talent here... truly amazing!

I promised a new member some examples of my sculpts and instead of starting another thread, will post it here :)

Right now I am stuck on doing miniature food... But I used to do life size babies...

I can't quite figure out where I moved my other mini pics so will just link my "in progress" website..

Been thinking on this piece for a little while. I think it came up better than I hoped but not as good as I would have liked:

Dreams In Flight

:D

I actually have a disclaimer made to put on my website because believe it or not - people buy it and then get angry it is tiny clay and not edible lol... yet... they are called miniatures.. I dunno.. people baffle me lol

@BrandonSP - Your art makes me envision animated works : )

@Mirror21 - your work is beautiful. Your latest addition is no exception. I absolutely love it

WOW!!

These are all absolutely amazing! .. The level of detail is incredible on the miniatures. The sculpted babies, the realism blows me away. Still stunned..

Roughly how long did it take you to sculpt the full size baby pictured? Also, I'm curious how much time went into the cake and the tiny plate with the tiny little burned candles on it! That is awesome!

Excellent work!

@ Emerald888 - thanks! The life size baby sculpts take anywhere from 3-6 weeks... depending on my time available to sculpt. The little baby ones take a couple days. As for my mini food... that birthday cake in the picture took about three hours, baking included. But probably because I am a perfectionist and so picky. It was the small wording that had me taking longest. I don't have great hand writing.. but I can fake it with a lot of effort in clay!

As for the candles... that was tricky. I am not very coordinated with my hands so again... it takes a lot of effort. They took about half as long as the cake took. I have learned over the years techniques that steady my hands and odd body postures while I work to help with intricate work. I also sculpted the plate.. and covered it in tissue paper to get the paper plate look. I actually made an entire birthday party... wheat thins and cheese puffs included lol :)

@ the moderator - "[Mod. edit: fixed that for you! ;) Images are incorrectly scaled unless they're 800x600 or smaller] "

Thanks! I will remember that :)

This is absolutely amazing! I make informational videos and my boyfriend makes meditation videos... would you mind if we used this? I will buy a license from you... I can't afford to pay a lot, but would like to pay something if you are willing to grant permission.

I love fractals, this was great! ..

To what degree do you feel you were able to represent the pattern from what you saw in your mind's eye? (If you could put a percentage on it, that would be helpful to me..)

Have have these things come to mind is great, to be able to present them in the world to others is incredible.

Good work!

Poolside Chillin'

Her Majesty the Pharaoh dips her legs into her backyard pool, ready to cool off from the hot desert sun. Obviously ancient Egypt inspired the big temple pylon in the far background, but the wall behind our heroine actually draws from Malian architecture in West Africa. Also, this is probably the first time I've drawn someone dipping into water.
