Tiny Show

Foundlings  (sold)  
                                                                        
Once a year Pence Gallery sends out 5" x 7" canvas boards for their Tiny Show. Years past I would just paint a still life or portrait of one of my pieces.  This year I decided to do a sculptural piece that fits on the board.  I built the "portrait" on a slab measuring 5 3/8" x 7 3/8" ( I estimated the piece would shrink less than 1/2") and trimmed away the background.  It came out of the kiln, fitting the the canvas board right at the edge. 

At this angle it does seem the sides are going off, but they actually line up.

  3. Of course your Nature Boy sold! Even if there had been sculptures a'plenty, he (and his little blue companions) would shine his ethereal beauty and steal the show!
    Love him so much.

    Charlene, you're such an inspiration, always :)

    1. It was fun to do this piece. It was a surprise to pull it out of the kiln, the colors were so autumnal!
