A rococo mermaid in Kato Polyclay.
A Fish from Versailles...
She's stand about 9" tall as a person with legs. Kato Polyclay.
More soon about the incredible Spectrum Fantasy Art Live event... it really blew me away, the work and the kindness of fellow artists!!
Banshee, or Bean Sidhe
Banshee, back view
Banshee is wearing a shroud, or my idea of one. As you can see from the back, walking would be difficult. I wanted to imply some other, less familiar, mode of locomotion...
Marginalia, underway
Kato Polyclay with wood, paper, copper foil, gold leaf and silk ribbon.
I love the playfulness and endless invention of marginalia that climb and wriggle about the edges of medieval manuscripts. So, since I had a wee head awaiting a body (or equivalent thereof) I thought I would play likewise...
White Deer Marginalia
Banshee, work in progress
She's an 8 inch figure in Kato Polyclay, dressed in washi paper. Hair combing is something Banshees (when they are not wailing, I assume):
Banshee combing her hair
Frost Spirit, underway
An unfinished miniature in Kato Polyclay -- she was afterwards painted. She'd stand about 8 inches tall in stocking feet. Done listening to Vivaldi. Must admit, all of his Seasons sound wintery to me.

I can post again!
Here's a small Mermaid to prove it:
She's in Kato Polyclay, and would stand around 7 1/2 inches tall on legs.
Baba Yaga's Hut
Minus the bone fence it now sports...
Little Mermaid, again...
Still on the year's Carnegie Dinosaur toy prototypes. Alas, I cannot show them to you yet. Safari, the company producing them, very much wants the subjects to remain a surprise until they are released for public consumption. But thereafter, I’ll post some in progress images, and further develop the Carnegie Museum Dino page. Meantime, here’s the Little Mermaid. You likely saw her before, but... I aim to do more with Hans C. Andersen tales over the next while.
Yuki Onna
My take on a little Yuki Onna, snow spirit:
She's a miniature in Kato polymer clay, with silk and mohair.
Silvershod, Silver Hoof for the Season
A Spring Faery in Winter
Hear the Mermaids Singing
A tiny faery at the seashore, in Kato Polyclay. She'd stand about 5 1/2 inches tall.
Wee Being, from the files...
