I found the piece of rusty metal when Bruce and I went on a walk at the beach on our anniversary, way back in May. I knew then that I wanted to incorporate it into some art.
It seemed like a good base for a sculpture. So when I got my new package of La Doll stone clay, I picked out my bit of inspiration from Milton and glued it on.
Then moved on to working with the clay. It is oddly different than drawing, yet all I have learned in drawing this past year came to my aid. I am deep in the realms of having learned so much, and having so much to learn.
She looks peaceful and serene.
