I mentioned briefly in a previous blog that I sculpt, I even sent one of my friends (mermaidstale) a picture of my most recent work but I've never really drawn attention to my art as I used to be bloody terrible at it.  Well I'm not terrible at it any more and seeing as I want to sell my latest piece I posted a couple of pictures in a collectors and artists group that I'm part of as a sort of teaser before she actually went on sale.

Nothing...not a look, not a mention...nothing.  Not even a "your work has made me want to gouge out my eyes with a spoon, please don't post again".  How am I supposed to sell something if a group of over a thousand people who supposedly either make or collect one of a kind polymer clay figures don't give a flying toss about what I'm doing.  I know I'm not a big name artist like some of them in the group whose work sells for big bucks, but surely as a new artist my stuff is at least worth a look?  After all, isn't that the best time to start collecting someone's work, when they are relatively unknown and you can pick up their stuff for next to nothing?

So I thought, sod it (and them) and I'm going to post a few pictures here instead.  She's one of a kind, completely handmade and painted with acrylics.  She's about 8 inches tall.null
