| Tiny blue fantasy house of mine. |
I'm a little late with my submission.
My first sculpture which focuses on architecture. I've always loved faerie tale houses and could therefore not resist making one.For the base of the house i used a blue granite clay (Sculpey III). From that clay I made two square blocks and pressed them together to get a nice building start. I created the roof from a mixture of Just Orange (Sculpey III) and Yellow (sculpey III). The way to make them is just making a triangle and flattening it in such a way that it kind of looks like a roof. I am not entirely satisfied with the roof, but that's okay. I made a pattern on the roof with an old toothbrush.
Now we have the base of the house, just to add some details. I took the color Cloud Blue (Sculpey III) for the door frame, and the round windows. To make the doorframe and round windows, just make a ball of the clay and roll it in your hand to a small string. Cut it if it's too big. Before you put the frame of the door on the house, get a piece of the same colour as the roof and flatten it. Make some wood lines in it with a small kitchen knife. Put the frame around it and give it a handle.
The house looks kind of plain with just the door and 2 windows, so we will add some vegetation. I've always loved vines with roses, so that is what I made. I took the colour Moss (Sculpey III) and made a small string again, which I pressed against the house. I took small balls from the Moss colour and flattened them to make some leaves. Next to the leaves I pressed some red roses. You can make roses by getting Red Hot Red (Sculpey III), making a small string, flattening it completely and try to roll it from one edge to another.
There are also some red roses on the back of the house. Hope you enjoy!
