Registration begins August 31st, and the class runs the week of October 5th through December 13th. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity!
Collaboration pieces are always great, often bringing two artists' worlds together, creating some sweet pieces. Penny, from Taylored Curiosities, recently collaborated with Sergey Safonov to create some Moon Seedlings. Each Seedling was hand sculpted and cast in porcelain, while being finished off with a woolen stem and a colored scarf. The larger seedling measures at a bit over 2", while the smaller Seedlings is about 1" tall. A very simple design which features some great work by two artists. Priced at 50 GBP each (~$85) plus shipping, there are 10 sets available, 5 red scarf and 5 blue scarf Seedlings. Each set comes signed and numbered out of 5.
