New Material

I decided that instead of just making my concentration out of clay, I am going to start making those forms with different (new) materials. I started one that going to be made out of marbles and I was also considering scrabble board letter tiles, ribbons, broken up cork board, and possibly even metal wiring.
I was looking at an artist that I found over the internet, Katja Syrjä. She is a 2D artist, but I was reading about her processes and her materials and I found something that interested me, "Syrjä is interested in using materials that she discovers in different environments". I decided that I was going to start looking for materials that were different from the usual and try and really make my concentration unique.
My Poker Face and Mother Nature have been fired and my WeeBot is going into the bisque ware soon. Once they are finished I will post pictures of them. So excited!
