Works In Progress

[dragonglow]

These are for some new bamboo tile/domino pendants. I'm not sure how many different kinds of animals and creatures I want to draw yet. I like to start with th eyes. I didn't have a US penny nearby so I used this Canadian coin.

Matthew, that is awesome! Thanks for sharing. I still marvel at how you can work with all those itty bitty pieces. Your sugar gliders don't mess them up? I would sneeze and spend the next hour trying to find everything. I know I would. -- << DEB >> Visit My Blog!

Thanks Deb! The sugar gliders have their own room, so they don't mess with my art. But my cat sometimes likes to jump on my desk and scatter the pieces everywhere so I have to remember to cover it all when I'm not working... I have sneezed and spent more than an hour collecting pieces because of it... Sometimes even just exhaling gently at the wrong angle is enough to send the pieces flying everywhere... And I hate to cut out a piece a second time, so I take as long as I have to to find the pieces. Sometimes it takes FOREVER since my work area is a big pile of papers and drawings and supplies......

WOW Matt! I *love* seeing how you do those - every so often I get an urge to try some paper sculpting, but then realize I'd probably go insane with those tiny pieces of paper, LOL! And that mermaid is DIVINE! I sooo wish I had the money so I could add her to my mermaid collection!! -- ~Faerydae Click to grow:

Those are just gorgeous Matthew. Gosh, you should finish off the sketches and sell those too. I'm sure there would be buyers for both. That's one of the most beautiful mermaids I've seen. -- Kathy

Thanks Kathy and Faerydae!

You should send those sketches to a developing nation and pay someone 5 cents an hour to fabricate them for you. -- "Mick is in fact quite right..." ~drawdog5

I love seeing other people's creativity spring to life. Watching the artwork unfold is such a learning process. Mick is, in fact, quite right, Matthew, lol. -- Laura View My Auctions Here
