Robert Brawley - The Halloween Fanctic
Twinkles
I'm sure everyone knows and loves Robert and his precious family,how can you not ?
I have been in a bit of a block for quite sometime and couldn't get to his Twinkles
project for sometime, that and ever the white rabbit...
So bitty sad Twinkles sat all alone looking at me forelornly as a WIP for far too long. With Robert's occasional gentle prodding I'd do a bit here and there ,well I finally finished little " Twinkles " or my version of him!!! YAY!!!!
Made from heavy air dry clay, painted with acrylics and a glossy medium added to eyes, nose and mouth areas sealed with a matte spray.
So he will be on his way to his loving home soon , thanks Robert for your patience.
A few wips:
Body proportions were off
very noticeable here
ARGH!!!
even a pupdog needs a body!!
No pictures please!!!

Hi Flora,
ReplyDeleteYour work is truly inspirational. I was wondering what your base material is that you start with. It looks like molded styrofoam. I have been sculpting with paperclay and using styrofoam blocks and balls for the base.
Hi Flora,
ReplyDeleteLong time, no chat! I've been so busy working on my Christmas sculpts (very slow with my disabilities) but shall be introducing a couple more soon. Your Twinkles is phenominal, as always, and I just can't tell you enough how much I enjoy your work and how much you inspire me. Not to mention how exceedingly generous and helpful you have been to me. I am forever in your debt for your kind guidance and help. I know I've been pestering you for your address, as I want to send a thank you gift, but I'm stuck at the moment, and horribly lacking any idea of what to make/send to you as I feel so unworthy.....really! I'm in awe of your talent, and I'm really afraid my sending you anything will only be an insult....and that's not like me. I usually do not lack self-confidence in such a large amount, and I know I'm babbling, but you literally make me starstruck. However, I am going to create something for you, as I'm bound and determined to thank you in a substansive way. Thank you, thank you, thank you.......Okay, I'm laying off the groveling now, but you'll still be my art hero.
Love ya'
Meri
Thank you Kim, Pattee, Michelle and Meri!!!
ReplyDeleteKim,I'm glad you think so, I tried!!!
Hey Pattee, you taking a breather from your travels?? I only wish I could do that too, thanks again for stopping in, Robert is a great guy and seems to enjoy my art!!!
Michelle, it is styrofoam but the packing kind, I have been using it for about 4 yrs now and it works well if you have a sharp knife, which I do.
Meri, you better not send me anything but a card!!!! I really appreciate your kind heart but remember what you said, you wouldn't send me anything but a card sweetie,easy peasy!!! ok?!!!
Blessings,Flora
too cute Flora! oh adorable! I don't know how you take that blob of styro and clay and do what you do but am amazed! I know Robert will treasure it forever.

ReplyDeleteBlessings,Flora
Hi Flora, I like your work is wonderful!!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs ,Arelly
WOWZA!! Flora Dora,
ReplyDeleteMr. Robert Brawley's smile says it all. You captured that little Frenchie so well, one wants to lean down and scratch behind his stubby wittle e-ar and tell that sweet pug face what a "peety, peety bo-ey he is". If that heartwarming squashed pug expression and soulful eyes aren't enough, his sleek and plump puggie body makes my palm itch to feel that velvet soft skin against the palm of my hand as I pick the little guy up.
Goodness gracious, Flora, all this sweet bo-ey needs to come to life is a visit to the Wizard for a heart.
I can hear his plaintive little Trick or Treat whimper, waiting for a doggie treat to fill his pumpkin. Of course, not knowing Twinkles, maybe it's a bit of a growl?!
Hats off and a sweeping bow in honor of your talent, Madame of the Clay!

post scriptum
Dare I add a gentle nudger? The last I heard of Red was a mention of locks of hair....Is that lovely and blanched face of hers forlornly pining for more than a bald head?
