Mornings With Mary....and Mary

Tried a little sculpting
with Sculpy
to make a lovely Mary.
Instead
 this Mary seems to look more like
an Aztec Goddess
But...
I spent several mornings with her
so she must present herself here
as she was intended to be.
 
Mary.
 
Sculpy, found objects, acrylic and pearl-ex 
 adhered to a painted wood slat
(thanks for glue advice from Priti Studio)
 
And here is the piece without
beads hanging on the side...
 
If she is not beautiful,
If she does not look refined,
It's ok.
If you allow yourself to imagine her heart,
you will see she is pure and holy.
She is still Mary,
and one can draw from her whatever spiritual feelings one needs.

  2. I love your Sculpey Mary. She is perfect just as she is. I love her without the beads but I love the beads, too. Really makes her jump out. Slat painting. Now that's a new concept to me. Hmmm. Should I try that?

  7. I triple love your Mary
    Judie! Because she is unique
    and beautiful and from your hands.
    I am amazed because I know
    how difficult sculpting is for me.
    And then you painted too!
    The sheerness of her cover-up is
    something I have never been able to paint.
    And the little details
    and the gulls!
    Good grief! You are so talented!
    ♥♥♥
