No Snow, No Inspiration



I am so tired of waiting for snow in the Northern Panhandle of West Virginia. We are in the most furthest peak and still no snow.  Ohio gets it and Pennsylvania gets it, but us?  No!  I live in the Appalachian hills and valleys. Where is my snow and where is my inspiration? 

I look outside at the fresh fallen snow, and ideas just pop into my little head. I have several orders for next year but I am going to get them done and out before then.  I have several La Bafana's orders also.  I will let you see them before I send them put. 


I have sculpted several new items for Christmas 2017. I have one half imbedded in plaster.  Oh My !  This is the one imbedded in plaster.  Oh Gees, I hope he comes out.  




































 This face  (above and below) is of a Belsnickle Santa.  They were considered Santa's helpers.  The Belsnickles often carried switches to beat, yes, beat the bad children. Some children were even carried away by the Belsnickle.   






I have gathered some ideas by looking at these vintage cloths.  They kept me happy over Christmas.  Kept my followers happy also.  Here is just a few. 




















I love this hat.  











Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas &  Happy New Year.
