"Eyes"
Polymer clay, gold leaf and other mixed media (rhinestones and pearls) over painted wooden surface, 6x7" (outer frame), 3.25x3.75" (sculpture).

This is part of a series of NON-DIGITAL sculptures, or "3D paintings", created in polymer clay with mixed media. The clay is molded with the beads and then baked. After curing, the sculpture is painted with acrylics and gold leaf and finally attached to the painted wooden surface.
