This morning, when I unwrapped my little lady, her
head was hanging at an awkward angle. I had wrapped it in a damp cloth to keep the
join at her neck from drying out too quickly. Cloth was too damp, so the clay
got too soft, and couldn't support the weight of the neck. Life happens, we
just have to learn from it.
But there is a silver lining to this tale of woe
and mayhem. In my excitement over the wings yesterday, I forgot to not only
take pictures, but to clean up her bottom!
A headless, creature is more easily turned upside down! Needless to say, that tremulous little wing was handled with CAUTION!!
The new head goes on
(it is hollow this time),
but I need fresh eyes to analyze its proportions.
Tomorrow...

Time to wrap her up, and protect the little wing, with a very slightly damp cloth!
