A Blog Award for Me!

The very kind, and very talented Hilary of Goldbutton Studio has given me this nice blog award. Thanks Hilary!

I'm supposed to list 5 of my addictions and then pass the award along to five more worth recipients. I know of lots of both so here we go:

1. Mario Kart Wii - It's an addictive game that steals way to much of my work time.

2. Lindt Truffles - I ate a ton of them for Christmas and still can't get enough.

3. The Twilight Zone - Just watched the new years marathon and have concluded that Rod Serling was genius.

4. Westerns - My favorite genre in movies, but I can't stand John Wayne. Just leave it to Clint Eastwood.

5. Going out with Steph - There's nothing better than heading out with my wife-to-be for a night of eating out and movies, etc.

Well that about covers it, and here are the lucky winners!:

1. Flora of Bone Head Studios

2. Jackie or Fat Jak Originals

3. Robert

4. Julie Heavenleigh Art

5. Laurie of Monkey-Cats Studio

Valentine WIP

I've been working on this love struck heart man off and on for the past few days.
The bad pic doesn't reveal much about him, but we don't want to spoil the fun do we?As far as I can remember, I've never made a Valentine's sculpture in the past. I suppose that makes this guy kind of special! Can't wait to get him painted.

I also have a few little heart ornaments in the works, so keep an eye out for them.

Update

Sorry for the lack of updates. Steph and I have been busy Christmas shopping and celebrating her graduation.

This Christmas season has been so much fun artistically. Spookytime Jingles has been a blast. I've met tons of great people through the site, including its talented artists and the wonderful customers who have bought from me. Its very refreshing to see that the world is full of good people. Thank you all.

I haven't done much sculpting lately, but I do have some new sketches ready to come to life in January. See you soon!

Look Who Graduated!

Congratulations to my wonderful fiance, Stephanie, who graduated Saturday from Stephen F. Austin State University. She earned her bachelors of Science and Mathematics degree. More specifically she's a probability and statistics whizz.

I'm amazed at how anyone can make this accomplishment, especially with her difficult major. I'm very proud of her. Now for grad school!

^^ There she is with her proud fiance (me!)^^

Blog Award!

I woke up today and checked my blog to a pleasant surprise. Laurie of Monkey Cats Studio passed this great blog award along to me, thanks Laurie!

I'll announce the winners sometime later today.

New Ornament on Etsy

Just listed this little snow guy on Etsy. There's a few more coming soon, including an elf and a Santa; not sure what else.

Btw, don't forget Spookytime Jingles is updating very soon!! Where is the time going, seriously!? I just finished the elf from the below post so keep an eye out for him. See you soon!

Elf WIP and a new Poll

I usually don't remember to take WIP shots until the sculpting is almost finished, but here's an earlier view of this piece. This design has been very ambitious and challenging from the beginning, but it has proven a blast to create.

You'll just have to use your imagination to fill in the gaps, he still has a long way to go before completion!

Also, I am tyring to get some new ornaments ready for etsy. Hopefully I can finish this guy within the next couple of days and get back to them. I'll keep you posted.
