drawing some inspiration { part 2 }


& here is the continuation of the 'journey' (for lack of a better term) of some of my first batch of scratch-foam texture pieces.

Rather than repeat everything I wrote here (it really won't take you long to go read it, promise), I'll just say that each mosaic shows part of a zentangle, the texture inspired by the pattern, an un-fired piece & the fired, tumbled & patina-ed result. Actually in this case pieces - what will be (once I finish them) a pendant & earrings.


This last one is just because I rather liked the photos of the pieces with the texture they were created with...so I made another mosaic, lol.

    1. you don't actually carve the foam as such, just press into it. These were done with a small ball burnisher, but any small, rounded implement should work.
