The bulletin board over my studio desk was so beat up and fugly, I was sick of looking at it. I almost threw it in the yard sale pile. But then I thought: hmm, I have some of that wonderful Tula Pink charm pack left and some decoupage medium. A couple hours later here's what it looked like. No way it's going in the yard sale now.
And here are a two sculpts I'm working on, now re-energized by my colorful inspiration board:
This is my first attempt at sculpting something humanish. Her head is Sculpey, the up-do is paperclay painted with watercolor. Still working out the body. So far its a Diet Coke bottle, one of those miniature glass ones that are so cute.
This is a Sculpey Bumble Beezle. I used very high speed film to capture her in flight. Thinking about adding a flower for her to hover over. Gonna let it sit a while and ferment first. This was the first piece where I used wire armature for the legs-- that's how I got the bend in them. I think more flying Beezles are in my future.

I have a bulletin board, but it doesn't look quite like that lol! Yours really is a work of art now.
Maybe I should post mine some day.
