Red Hot!
I decided to use this month’s theme, Red Hot, as an excuse to accessorize Helen’s desk for her without her knowledge or permission. ( At first I was thinking something for her hair, but a red hot color would blend in too much these days.) Door knobs really tell you about the person.
This little devil may care fellow was originally a practice piece for making teeth. Tommie Howell had been kind enough to sit with me for a special lesson. I remade him for Ornament Thursday in a lovely hot red color. He’s a mix of Kato and Premo clays and has a wash of black oil paint to give him that nice sunken eyed complexion.

You're like Extreme Makeover but with polyclay! You did a good job on the devil's teeth and the red is a perfect shade for him. Lovely work!

OMG, he scared me when I opened your link! Fabulous clay work!!!
So how'd that go over in the office? Very realistic and creepy. :)
he looks great! You're so great with all the detail work :)
Oh, yeah, devilishly sunken-eyed complexion is a wonderful description-- you really captured it. He's a devilishly handsome guy!
Oooh, great detail on this little guy! Beautiful work.
How'd it go over in the office? Well... let's just say that if that desk is ever going to be cleaned again while he's the knob, it's gonna be a miracle.
