I'm Back!!


My poor ol' hubby has had to have some surgeries and has not been really well for a while now. With that and helping out on the ranch I couldn't keep up with my blog here so I deleted it. Shuckydarn ! I shouldn't have done that. Now I've got to start all over again. Anyway, Ive uploaded some of my work but there is much much more. You can see my work on my website at http://www.snicolasoriginals.com/ These are my new passion. They are sculpted natural gourds. Fun to do and not nearly as involved as the figurative pieces. The faces are done with polymer clays. The bearding and embellishments are done with Apoxi Sculpt. Fun stuff that Apoxi Sculpt. They've been sealed so they can be placed out of doors.






























Characters and Santas


The gent in the tub is Slim. Then Bubba, and The Sheepman. These are my Ranch Hands.







This Santa is Victorian Gold. I really liked his face.




Then there is a Medieval Father Frost, and my Western Santa, Christmas Goose. These ar just a few but there are many many more figuratives on my website.
