Hello Everyone!
We had our first rain here in a few weeks and it feels like fall already! Foggy, gray and moody. A fine walk in the forest this morning revealed many yellow leaves and berries on the ground. It's been a lovely summer but I am ready for fall and winter again! :)
Alright, on to the new work from the last month. . . I want to get back on an every Friday pace AND get back to commenting more regularly on my favorite blogs so I am going to keep the first Friday posts minimal on words. I have lots to share with coming month, new inspirations and oddities, a few book recommendations and a few video links.
Plus, 4th Fridays will be back with a look into my process as I continue to push through the first draft of my fantasy novel.
For now, enjoy the newest and most recent from my shops:

| Let's get right to it with this fantasy inspired piece. A monk's hermitage set atop a stone spire with a circular staircase cut into the stone and winding it's way up the sides. . . and a tiny N scale Monk figure! |
 |
| Rarely get a request for the Goddess Nephthys as a Kite. This may be my favorite that I have made. |
 |
| A more detailed and complex Mushroom House Scene |
 |
| I love the regal simplicity of the Sekhmet face. She truly is the Lady of Light. |
 |
| Too Soon? Not for the shop! I've been slowly stocking up on making mini tombstones for the Halloween season! |
 |
This new blue "faience" patina is a mess to work with but yields such amazing results! My fingers are blue for two days afterwards! (Note to self - gloves!) |
 |
Had some of these enamel pots around from a few years back and just found them again. So the mini-village makes comeback! |
 |
| A request for a set of votive altar candle holders led to the creation of this unique, one of a kind set! |
 |
| Tiny terra-cotta pots, tiny houses BIG magic! |
 |
| And I know, I know. I have shown many Taweret statues in my blog. . . I cannot help it! There is no other figure I make where I am so giddy while I create it each and every time! A chubby hippo can really make a "kid" smile. |
