Fearless Leader: like you see mine
NikiT: she has a link next to her name that says "view my
webcam"
chelyha55: I never see a TV icon, I don't know what that's all about

your buddy list

webcam is not availible
frogger70301: Nj, that's the best I could get her face.
Fearless Leader: a new face for an angel
chelyha55: wait let me fool with it a minute
Fearless Leader: now you know you can deconstruct something and work
on it and put it back together
Fearless Leader: that was the important thing to do with that angel's
head
frogger70301: I got some little flat spots for where I will paint her
eyes and her mouth.
Fearless Leader: ya, I figured it'd be painted
Fearless Leader: easier with the little faces
frogger70301: I couldn't for the life of me get the mouth right.
frogger70301: I am going to have to try on a bigger scale, then go
smaller.
techi_mom56: pretty angel

Fearless Leader: chimbos in my hat, I almost used that picture for my
biz page
Fearless Leader: but thought better of it
Fearless Leader: eeek
frogger70301: Yeah, you are. I haven't done that in so long. I had to
actually dig up my polish.
chelyha55: HA!!!
Fearless Leader: finding my polish was an archeological dig
Fearless Leader: most of the bottles were all dried up
Fearless Leader: fossilized
chelyha55: I don't have enough fingernails to bother to polish
NikiT: boy do i need a tan!
boobearns joined the room
frogger70301: don't we all, Niki.
Fearless Leader: Doro hey baby
frogger70301: Hey, Doro.
Fearless Leader: What I'm going to do right now is take these goldish
sheets
boobearns: HI
Fearless Leader: and do a chevron cane
NikiT: i keep blinding the cam when my hands come into view. LOL
boobearns: just in for a few minutes
boobearns: Nice angel Mitch!
Fearless Leader: Niki, no worries from me, James is melanin deprived
Fearless Leader: I use snow goggles with him
boobearns: NJ, what are you working on?
Fearless Leader: blinding white
frogger70301: Thnx. It's the one I did earlier today.
dahs512: Hello , I'm back for a bit.
Fearless Leader: Doro, something like this
boobearns: duh...never mind chevron sheets
Fearless Leader: but in gold
Fearless Leader: but I'm still thinking of some other color to add to
it
Fearless Leader: we did gold and green for dragon scales for Niki
there
frogger70301: What colors do you have so far?
Fearless Leader: which I love too much
Fearless Leader: so I was thinking
Fearless Leader: of gold and green
dahs512: oh mitch, she's beautiful
Fearless Leader: chevrons
boobearns: that did look like dragon scales
frogger70301: Thnx, Denise.
Fearless Leader: but I'm undecided, let me get some more prepped
sheets and kick some colors around
boobearns: purple?
Fearless Leader: Maybe this green, no purple prepped
Fearless Leader: I'm using what I have prepped because they will rot
if I don't
dahs512: Niki, what are you making?
Fearless Leader: well they won't rot, but you know what I mean
frogger70301: What about a brown gold mix, with maybe white?
seblack991234: How long does pressed out clay last?
NikiT: adding the belly to a dragon
dahs512: oh, cool
chelyha55: yes the angel is very cute
NikiT: what kind of webcam did you say you have denise?
Fearless Leader: I kind of like this gold and green here
boobearns: sure hope no one else turns on a webcam...I'm out of room
on the screen
chelyha55: I want to do some sculptiing one of these days!
NikiT: LOL
dahs512: NJ are you using foils or is that just foil?
Fearless Leader: LOL, Doro, me too
Fearless Leader: that's foldie foils
Fearless Leader: to store clay
dahs512: ok
frogger70301: I'm gonna close mine, just in case Denise wants to turn
hers on.
Fearless Leader: I will mix colors and then stash them for times like
this
Fearless Leader: I have this whole range of gold-ish colors
dahs512: no, i'm just watching tonight
boobearns: in the pre-XP days we could have 2 monitors, but the second
one won't work with XP
NikiT: test
Fearless Leader: adding bits of brown to gold
boobearns: Mitch, didn't mean you had to turn yours off!
Fearless Leader: then I have this butt load of green
boobearns: green and gold...it seems to be calling to you NJU!
boobearns: oops NJ
Fearless Leader: Hey I want to open a school
Fearless Leader: NJU
Fearless Leader: has a ring to it
Fearless Leader: Like
Fearless Leader: Watzammata U
Fearless Leader: in Rocky and Bullwinkle
chelyha55: I'm making red and gold
Fearless Leader: I want to have my business site to have the motto
Fearless Leader: "Giving you the Business"
Fearless Leader: just to be a brat
Fearless Leader: red and gold is nice, crimson and gold is my
obsession
Fearless Leader: so rich
Fearless Leader: yum
Fearless Leader: oh I'm getting out some crimson
Fearless Leader: that's the ticket
Fearless Leader: thanks Cheryl
Fearless Leader: But before I move these sheets of clay. I suggest
that when you have a load of clay come in, mix new colors and store
them so you have a pallet to pull from
chelyha55: I have sculpeyIII redgolden and premo gold
Fearless Leader: let's say you get the urge to do leaves, if you have
a range of green and brown already mixed you can just slice and dice
Fearless Leader: that sounds very yummy Cheryl
Fearless Leader: but I'm Goth Vegas and anything with mica in it is ok
by me
Fearless Leader: Ok, we're beating this technique to the ground here.
So we will continue on this fish scale technique
chelyha55: I put a little pearl in with the gold to lighten it up a
bit
Fearless Leader: shall we do chevron flips for the basic element?
Fearless Leader: shall we do sheets since we did the jelly roll cane
last time?
dahs512: the longest time consumer for me is mixing colors
Fearless Leader: that's why I mix all at once
Fearless Leader: toss rations into the food processor
boobearns: I'm going to have to leave, bed time for me...busy day of
shopping tomorrow. Take care everyone
Fearless Leader: it goes fast,
Fearless Leader: Ok, honey, not long enough to see anything, huh?
boobearns left the room
dahs512: by boo
Fearless Leader: So chevron or jelly roll?
Fearless Leader: It will be the same technique with some new
variations
dahs512: you are no gonna belive this but i will be ducking in and
out....sorry, family stuff
Fearless Leader: no worries honey
frogger70301: I'm gonna get going too. Lene needs to settle down so
hunny man can get some sleep.
NikiT: Hey NJ.. what do you use as your mat? I'm thinking what I am
using is too reflective and contributing to the washout in my cam...
Fearless Leader: ok baby girl
dahs512: i'm here in heart
frogger70301: Talk with yall some more tomorrow.
Fearless Leader: Ciao Bellas
frogger70301: Bye.
frogger70301 left the room
Fearless Leader: Niki, this work surface
Fearless Leader: is one of those "self healing" art work pads
Fearless Leader: it has a grid on the other side and that other side
isn't smooth, has a tooth to it
NikiT: hrm. I think I'm may have to invest in one of those. Where did
you get yours?
Fearless Leader: so things don't slip
Fearless Leader: this side is smooth
Fearless Leader: I got it at Flax, this art supply store, but I've
seen it in the stores at Student Unions at colleges
Fearless Leader: and for a cheaper price if you know a student
Fearless Leader: This work pad has held up pretty good for the
continual action it sees
Fearless Leader: Ok, I'm going to refill my juice cup and then start
on another effort with the fish scales. Doing this over and over for a
marathon demo is my way of practicing all at once
seblack991234: Walmart has them.
Fearless Leader: ironing out the wrinkles all at once
Fearless Leader: Oh thanks Suz
seblack991234: Welcome
Fearless Leader: I was just at Flax picking up other stuff and said,
screw it, I am on public transit and to roll about looking for a
cheaper price would waste my life
NikiT: walmart? I'll have to check them out. crafts section I presume?
Fearless Leader: I'd pay the extra couple of dollars for not to have
to look for a sale
seblack991234: All sizes and then for the largest go to a sewing
machine sales place.
Fearless Leader: no kidding, the sewing section, what a concept, but
of course
NikiT: sure would beat wax paper on my desk. ;-D
Fearless Leader: the claymates must invade the notions department
Fearless Leader: brb
seblack991234: Quilters use them a lot.
merrie60us joined the room
seblack991234: I use a huge one to cover my sewing cut out table so I
can use those rolling cutters for dress patterns.
chelyha55: you guys, the cat was trying to play with the end of my
ribbon of clay
Fearless Leader: here kitty kitty
Fearless Leader: I'm going to get started
NikiT: cats aren't allowed in my room. i chase them out.
chelyha55: it was hanging off the table
merrie60us: NJ I never recieved the e mail but I did send everything
to Syl so we both have the info
merrie60us: what are you making now
NikiT: I think she is going to re-do the fish scales
techi_mom56: good i want to see how to do them again
merrie60us left the room
techi_mom56: i have a nice gold and a nice not bright red
Fearless Leader: Merrie, my isp sucks, my outgoing mail delayed,
incoming main out of order
Fearless Leader: it'll show up
Fearless Leader: sooner or later
Fearless Leader: ok, I think I got the colors I can use here
seblack991234 left the room
Fearless Leader: I think the blend will be the light gold and green
Fearless Leader: then I'll add stripes
Fearless Leader: because stripes inside of this cane is something I
want to explore
Fearless Leader: using stacked sheets
Fearless Leader: slicing them thin
Fearless Leader: then wrapping that slice around something
Fearless Leader: so the little ends are showing
Fearless Leader: like dots
Fearless Leader: but I'm wondering what would be a good color that
will stand out when I do this
Fearless Leader: Oh hey I just remembered I got that dark blue and
silver, I'll do the dots in that
Fearless Leader: So that's the pallet I'll be working with and I'll
just get started then...
Fearless Leader: I was looking for some pearl to lighten this gold
Fearless Leader: and I don't know where I put it
Fearless Leader: can't find it so never mind
Fearless Leader: Oh Cheryl, I'll do the gold with dark blue
Fearless Leader: you were wondering what that would look like, yes?
chelyha55: yes
chelyha55: sorry, I was at the oven, I'm experimenting with image
transfer
chelyha55: onto clay using tshirt transfer paper
Fearless Leader: that's cool, how did it turn out?
chelyha55: the ones with the tlc didn't turn out too well, but the
others are fine
chelyha55: I have one up for auction right now and have a bid on it
Fearless Leader: That's exciting
chelyha55: yes it is. I wasn't sure if it would sell.
Fearless Leader: So that is the blend between dark blue and gold
Fearless Leader: it has a greenish blend in the middle
chelyha55: so you rolled it with blue on outside
Fearless Leader: so the gold will be the pointy bit
Fearless Leader: after cutting it down the middle
Fearless Leader: like a flame on a candle
Fearless Leader: first cut was off center
Fearless Leader: eeep
techi_mom56: what did you do there?
chelyha55: yea because it doesn't look like mine
Fearless Leader: I just reduced it after stacking the four lengths
Fearless Leader: I don't know what I'm doing
Fearless Leader: still experimenting with this stacking trick
techi_mom56: how did you stack them
Fearless Leader: some times the experiments look like I expected
Fearless Leader: with all the pointy bits going in the same direction
Fearless Leader: My thought here is to reduce this fairly small and
then be able to cut and stack a bunch and not have it be narrow
Fearless Leader: and then not have to reduce a whole lot after that
Fearless Leader: since it's already small
techi_mom56: okay
chelyha55: well mine didn't turn out like fish scales but it looks
cool anyway
Fearless Leader: I sort of like the shape this ended up with
Fearless Leader: there's this sort of leggo interlocking thing going
on and I don't know how that happened
Fearless Leader: so you're discovering it as I am
Fearless Leader: I'm going to slice some off and line up the V shapes
Fearless Leader: see what happens
chelyha55: mine has kind of a brocade look]
Fearless Leader: I'm glad you're claying along Cheryl, this way you'll
discover things I've not
chelyha55: well you know i'm exploring new territory
Fearless Leader: exactamundo
Fearless Leader:
chelyha55: yep
Fearless Leader: it's not interlocking like I thought it would
Fearless Leader: I'm going to do a circle
Fearless Leader: points all in the middle
Fearless Leader: see how that turns out
chelyha55: I did that with one of mine
chelyha55: hard to get out of that cane making mentality
chelyha55:
Fearless Leader: I get stale
Fearless Leader: you know
Fearless Leader: folks like a certain thing
Fearless Leader: so I'm compelled to copy myself
Fearless Leader: and like copies of copies
Fearless Leader: in a photocopy machine
Fearless Leader: the image degenerates
Fearless Leader: I feel that way about doing the same thing all the
time
Fearless Leader: it's not exciting any more
Fearless Leader: there's no evolution or growth
Fearless Leader: making myself experiment on cam and showing folks
that I don't know what I'm doing most of the time
Fearless Leader: gives them heart
Fearless Leader: for they know they don't know what they are doing
either
Fearless Leader: and it's all ok
Fearless Leader: we're ok with not knowing
Fearless Leader: but some folks think that claying without knowing
where you're going is a waste of clay
Fearless Leader: I say bullshit
Fearless Leader: it's call experimentation, evolution and development
of one's style
Fearless Leader: that's why if someone uses one of my OLD ideas to
death
Fearless Leader: I don't care
chelyha55: damn right
Fearless Leader: use my exhusbands if you want
Fearless Leader: I'm done with them
Fearless Leader: been there done that
chelyha55: LOL!
Fearless Leader: I'm off for fresher experiences
Fearless Leader: he he he
Fearless Leader: and so are you
Fearless Leader: eh?
