Sorry folks for the late dragon post this week. My youngest son recently moved back home and we now are back to a full house. It’s not a bad thing, but it certainly has messed up my equilibrium. I really need to start on these dragons sometime before<\/em> Wednesday night!<\/p>\n

Click on any of the photos for a closer look.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

Anyhow, meet Renatta. I’ve had in mind to make a red dragon with red and gold mica powders for some time now. I wanted to name her Renatta, which is a form of the name\u00a0Renee, a character in a book series by one of my favorite authors, Robin Hardy.<\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

I love how the candlelight plays off her wings and her sparkles.\u00a0 The Interference Red Perfect Pearls<\/a>\"\"\u00a0have a really pretty iridescent pink\/red look in real life.<\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

I also like that she works with or without the candle holder.<\/p>\n

At some point I want to make her a treasure chest, or something interesting to put in that space where she’s looking.<\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

Although they’re not perfect, I do like how the wings came out, especially the translucence.<\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

It was fun making a slightly larger sculpture than I usually do, as I\u00a0got to spend more time on details like the toes and the horns.<\/p>\n

\"Dragon<\/a><\/p>\n

I also did some different details on the tip of the tail.<\/p>\n

Now it’s time to start on #6!<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to keep up with my dragon creations this year, I’ve made a\u00a0Thursday\u2019s Dragon Pinterest board<\/a> just for them.<\/p>\n

Happy creating all. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
