I choose to make my boyfriend a gift. Granted I was making it with him sitting in the same room with me. But what am I to do since my "studio" is my couch and my section of the coffee table? I purchased some bones online for his collection. (We already have 4 different sculls in our living room.) He is a biology teacher so what else would we have a decoration?? I didn't want to give him just a bunch of bones so made a "cave" for them to sit in.
It is a canvas with hole cut into the middle of it and a box added to the middle so I could have a place to make a cave, which was made out of paperclay. I sculpted the bird out of Apoxi Clay and attached one of the rib bones to it's beak. There is a scull, leg bones, rib bones, and vertebra added thru out the canvas. I also attached some crystals we dug up a few years ago when we went mining.
He liked it and we currently have it sitting on the shelf above our TV.
He gave me a frog lunch bag. I love frogs so it is the cutest thing ever. I already brought it to work with my lunch in it. Everyone there thought it was cute as well and that it totally fit me.
