Fall is here and the weather is getting cooler, I have to say I was not made for Kansas heat and humidity and I much prefer this weather! I still have cotton in my garden, at least until the first frost. To see its progress over the summer visit my garden blog http://willartforfood.blogspot.com

This is the first time for growing cotton, so I am anxious for it to open up already!

I am also gearing up for National Novel Writing Month! http://nanowrimo.org
50,000 words in 30 days!

AHT Creepy

OK, here is the story. I do a lot of sculpting of figures and not all of them turn out the way I want them. Usually I will sit them on a shelf and live with them a bit before I decide what I need to do to 'fix them'. Below are a few images of how I decided to 'fix' some for Halloween 2007.

This brings up the topic....

Copyright always makes folks debate. The site posted above is for sock creatures and I have heard that it is often debated as to how far this artist should go to fight for copyright of similar images.

For instance...

Is the following artist work a violation?

I have my thoughts, but I will keep them to myself. Something to make you ponder......

AHT Good News!

Good news! The latest book "Polymer People: An Artist's Method of Sculpting the Adult Head in Polymer Clay" is ready to go out into the big bad world!

http://artist-how-to.com/Preordersale.html

The first chance I get in the morning the pre-sale will no longer be affective. So if you are thinking about purchasing one do it quickly! By the end of tomorrow I will have it set up on Lulu.com to be purchased in a printed format. No printing out on your printer, just a spiral bound printed version for you to have in your hot-little-creative hands :0)-------

If you pick up the fall issue of "Polymer Cafe", be sure to look for our ad!
http://www.polymercafe.com
-------
I am debating on which to feature next, hands or babies. If you have a preference let me know, I am leaning toward babies. But maybe they have already been done so much that having a detailed tutorial to purchase is not necessary?
--------
Don't forget our sale is still on for "Make a Profit with Your Passion: Starting a Home-Based Art Business" for $6.99 until Sept 16th.
