It's EHAG EMPORIUM TIME!









My scene sculpt is titled "Three Witches"


.

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and cauldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the cauldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork, and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg, and owlet's wing,—
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

(sounds pretty stinky to me. :)  )

This is my vision of the witches from a certain Scottish play. Circled around the bubbling caldron, the three are excited to invoke their spell! The center witch with her amulet chants the incantation while her sister adds another squirming ingredient from her goody bag to the mix. Among the moss, mushrooms grow, lurking back from the embers a small toad and snail hope to slither off before becoming part of the broth. Made with paper clay, wool and other mixed media the work measures 6” tall and 6 ¾ wide. A fun piece to add to your display or to bring out when the season arrives!

Owls are a favorite of mine!

This is my first one of a kind piece for 2011.

Owls have always been a favorite of mine well before the movie, Lengends of the Guardians,The Owls of Ga'Hoole came out. (Which I saw and really enjoyed) I think they are beautiful and interesting. According to a magazine article in Birds and Blooms not all owls are nocturnal, grey and northern hawk owls are diurnal, meaning they're awake during the day. Owls can not see in complete darkness, they can see excellently in low light though, dusk and dawn are their preferred hunting times. Not all owls live in the woods. Some live in grassland underground burrows while others live in cati. When I was young I learned the hard way they can be quite territorial. I had one swoop down and grab my hair! I love the sound of  the owls when camping and enjoy watching them from a distance. The sillhoette of a owl against the moon is a spooky Halloween image, but also a beautiful one to me.
