Day #3

I spent today doing a Haunani-Maggio color study of Pardo Professional ArtClay. I think I'm going to love this clay. It's quite solid and strong and the colors are well-saturated. Am looking forward to seeing how it holds up to caning.

Color studies like this always have a few scraps left over. I decided to use some of them trying my hand at making some head pins. I used 24-gauge fine silver wire, torch fired the ends and then decorated them with teeny-tiny bits of polymer clay. They are awaiting curing and use in some inspired project.
