Ethereal Visit from Dad.

A few of years ago when my 4 yr old was a newborn i was in the bathroom brushing my teeth before going to bed when i noticed movement outside the slightly ajar bathroom door. I asked my partner if it was him, as i stuck my head round the door, only to catch a glimpse of a familiar dark haired man walking/rushing from the baby's room into the older 2 childrens room (my youngest wasn't born at the time)....
At my calling my partners name there came muffeld "what's up" from our bedroom, which meant that my partner was already in bed and thus was not anywhere near hallway where our bathroom was situated... (also the fact is that my partner has blonde hair not dark)
As i stood there, i was suddenly overwhelmd with love and warm feelings and memories of my father who had passed away in a road accident when i was nine (In hindsight his way of letting me know that it was him)...
It was then i saw the visitor for who he was, i was filled with joy as i realized that Dad had popped in to visit his Grandchildren :)))

I can sculpt??-Seemingly!

Well here's a few pictures of my latest creation. I had never tried sculpting until 2 weeks ago when i made "The Morrigan", this raven statue (my very first sculpture ever!)for a task given to us by our HPs.
I tend to go through long periods of non-activity with my arts and crafts, followed by periods of intense activity!
I was amazed at the fact that sculpting came with such ease, i made my raven in about 12 hours (spread over 3 days, as i had to do it in the garden (weather permitting) because of the mess!)
I soon noticed that i seemed to have a knack for this sculpting thing and the end result, for a first, was not bad at all! (if i may say so myself ;o)
Totally bitten by the sculpting bug, i have now begun another project, this time of a fish, curled up around itself (i love round, flowing shapes)
The idea came to me after completing the raven to make a representation of all of the 4 elements (earth, air, water and fire). I already have air (raven), am busy with the fish for water and am considering a salamander for fire and i still have to think a wee bit before i decide what i wish to represent the earth element.. (not into garden gnomes- lol)
Anyway, have fun and enjoy the pics!

These are the lastest of my sculptures. It is a Salamander, representing the element Fire. I did this sculpture in 2 days.
