I have begun working on my next clay piece, based on the Black Raven dream. I created a mold that is the skirt, torso and tail of the raven-woman. I don’t think I need a mold to add the wings or the woman’s head. We’ll see, but I expect I can do that by hand. This photo is the back of the cardboard guide. Now I’ll start roping clay coils around the structure.
For days I have been trying to decide how to make the feathers for the wings and tail. Today I decided I can use leaves from my outdoor sage plant.
Nice!
