Through My Eyes                                                                                                                                                                                          * Working again  on the sculpture of Tara Drolma!  Here I'm working on the her other hand. I've begun creating the cloth that she is pulling on this side and shaping  the fingers to hold it.  I made the armature wires a bit stiff for the fingers . It makes this section stronger but makes changing their position somewhat awkward so I've sprayed the clay with water to soften the clay and make it more flexible.   We can see the clay I've added to the base along with some rough indications of the flow of energy of the water. please click here to continue...                                                                                                                                                           * courtesy of A Luminous Diamond (Bright) Crystal Show productions.
