| Sandwiches, cookies, corn, peas, and a cutie... |
 |
| Found this cafeteria tray at the flea market... |
 |
| Looks like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, to me... |
 |
| Inspiration board on the studio door... |
 |
| Research... |
 |
| It wouldn't be school lunch without a corndog... |
 |
| Forming heads with the neck up... |
 |
| They get flipped once the necks are firm... |
 |
| Starting to shape the faces... |
 |
| This guy wants to look like a rough wood carving... |
 |
| Carving and pinching... |
 |
| He is going to be placed on a carved wooden base... |
 |
| This pedestal will be the base for a head sculpture... |
 |
| Making some heads the Stan Welsh way, with necks up... |
 |
| Once the neck is dry, the head gets flipped and completed... |
 |
| Sculpted a small tooth, not unlike my tooth that recently cracked... |
 |
| He has a bird on his other shoulder... |
 |
| Percy has been irritated by the increased studio time... |
 |
| I've been storing up bottles for a while... |
 |
| Now, it's time to construct some ceramic stoppers... |
 |
| Percy was not keen on spending the day out in the shed... |
 |
| I also made some textural shapes... |
 |
| These are fitting into the abalone bowls in my yard... |
 |
| Thinking about glazing the stoppers with monochromatic color... |
 |
| That way, they'll make a unified gallery presentation... |
 |
| I only have a few left from my last batches... |
 |
| I started a new bag, and wrapped up some spares... |
 |
| My mom sent me home with some small towels... |
 |
| I began to cut out the cupcake slabs... |
 |
| Then, had some lunch... |
 |
| The flanges require drying time to set up... |
 |
| That way, the coils of icing aren't too heavy... |
 |
| Took a second to clean up in between batches... |
 |
| Finally finished, and then set them in the house to dry... |
 |
| Tomorrow I'm working on bottle stoppers... |
 |
| It was freezing at the flea market... |
 |
| These dudes added some color... |
 |
| Loved this very deep button bin... |
 |
| He was snuggling underneath an Oregon table cloth... |
 |
| Loved this handsome doughboy... |
 |
| Always a big fan of doll people... |
 |
| Headed over to Pacific Grove... |
 |
| Just a quick perusal of my favorite haunt... |
 |
| Pretty, but also pretty pricey... |
 |
| Noted a swell camera collection... |
 |
| Took a look at some elegant telephones... |
 |
| Gorgeous chalkware... |
 |
| Impressed with the silhouettes... |
 |
| Found some Mexican pottery... |
 |
| This portrait had incredible brushwork... |
