A departure from Sculpture

Though not a departure from Polymer clay. This is my first semi-serious creation with a cane. A Cane is a cylinder (in general) of clay that has some pattern running through it. In this case, there are two canes, a rose cane and a leaf cane, you can reduce them in size, but keep the detail, which is why there are two or three colors worth here, and the clay was mixed with translucent, so you can see through it when there is a candle in the bowl.

It looks better when lit and in a dim room than when seen in daylight, for a couple of reasons, not the least of which being that the boundaries between the clay are quite visible. But it's only my first attempt.

This is the other version. I'm a little partial to this one.

My newest Sculpture

This was an attempt to create a commissioned piece for someone. I made two bases for this image, and I'll post the other one next. Whichever base the person doesn't choose, will be used by another sculpture.
