Works in progress

Hello all.  I thought I'd share a few photos of what I've been working on as of late. 
A few sets of polymer clay beads basking in the sun.  Each bead has been sanded with 400 and 800-grit sandpaper, glazed three times and now they are ready to be strung.  I'm awaiting a few more components but hope to begin the necklace construction by the weekend.

Baby Blue Jays


These darling feather wings were a custom order for a photographer in Canada. I had an absolute blast painting all the feathers to look like a real blue jay. You'd never guess it, but all of the feathers started out powder blue.
These are my first baby angels, scaled down in size for infants.
