Inspiration is weird

Inspiration is a crazy thing. I got home form my trip, and I just wanted to dive in to my claying, since I also had 5 days off to do whatever I wanted. I made 3 kinds of Chicky Beans and I really didnt like them, nor do I like them now. They got hucked in to the reject bin. I was sad, since they took up time, and clay, but, this kinda thing happens. There is one I want to eventually re-make.Its the Belgium Waffle. I loved making the waffle, but the Chicky Bean didnt turn out right, so I want to make that one over again some time.
I went to Michales last weekend and took advantage of the clay sale, and I got a lot of colours I need for the 4 new characters I have created. Im thinking of writing some stories for them or something like that. I love the new colours that have been released as I have said before. I had a list of the ones I wanted and when I got to the Michales in Vancouver to get them, someone had bought every block of every colour that I wanted! I was pissed, mostly cause we had paid for parking after driving half an hour in to Vancouver XD Oh well, I went to the one in Richmond and there was a full selection there :)
Anyways, I finished a beach sculpture which I will post later, and now I want to work on another. SO I shall ;)

At The Beach Chicky Beans

I made these Chicky Beans before I went to Georgia, and so far, they are my very favorites :D




Heres a close up of them. I THINK Ive narrowed down their names, so Ill just list them here. Here is Liberty Belle, the Sandcastles At The Beach Chicky Bean.


Here is Georgia Adalaine, the Palm Trees At The Beach Chicky Bean. She turned out awesome!


Here is Gracie Sarah, the Waves At The Beach Chicky Bean.


And here is Bette Valerie, the Sea Shells At The Beach Chicky Bean.


Since it is summer, I am trying to make more summery/beachy Chicky Beans, but Im also getting some ideas for my Chicky Beans From Around The World series, so I might make one or two after I make another beach Chicky Bean

Im back!

Geeze, I just realized how long its been since I posted here.... guess its time to catch up!
Clay wise, I have TONS and TONS of new clay, and by new, I mean the new Premo and Sculpey colours that have been released. I am very, very pleased with them. Im so happy they came out. After about 10 years of exactly the same colours being sold, it got beyond dull. But, it gave me good reason to learn how to make my own new colours, but the new ones that have come out have special pigments and glitters and such that cant be made otherwise.
I have also made lots and lots of Chicky Beans. I wish I had kept up with this blog so I could document each one as it was being made, but I have been going through some difficult things, and just didnt get around to it. So, hopefully, Ill get back in to the swing of that. Anyways, thats all for this moment. Hopefully Ill be back soon! ;)
