Just the Tip… I Mean Tail

So, I was playing with clay yesterday, more of a therapy thing as my hands have really been hurting lately, and I created something… Mermaid Tail trinket dishes. WORK IN PROGRESS!!!

Hey! Who did that?

I’ve been working on the sea turtle commission today. Painted the main piece – the big turtle. Beyond thrilled with how it come out! I just keep looking at it and asking myself, “hey!

They had all been in different placesContinue reading “Bits and Pieces – Survivors”

AndContinue reading “Bits and Pieces – The Mid-West Mauler”

Bits and Pieces – The Door

The feeling that flooded every fiber of her being as she ran her fingers lightly down the textured surface toward the knob? One wordContinue reading “Bits and Pieces – The Door”

Bits and Pieces – The Sound

There was nothing below, except that sound. It came out of the darkness – ka-chunk – like thin tendrils, seeking out and invading their ears, reaching deep, pursuing the old memories, igniting the old fears. Jane leaned over the railing, her eyes searched the depths of the darkness below. Nothing. A hand shot out andContinue reading “Bits and Pieces – The Sound”
