One of my very favorite planter. I just love this. It's in their entryway.

I have been spending every available moment experimenting with all the mold making supplies I got down at the clay art center. I am on a roll, as it were. I have cast many more leaves, but I am afraid to try to cast the gunnera leaf I have finished because I am afraid it will ruin the paint, even though it is sealed. I am waiting for the gunnera to grow a bit longer and then will get another leaf off of it and perhaps made a direct mold of said leaf. I have finished the pedestal for the one I made for my garden and should be able to get that completed soon. Going to visit Little and Lewis' garden was extremely inspiring to me. If only I didn't have to work for a living.

Oh, and I know this belongs on the other thread, but who cares? I took my gunnera leaf and a rhubarb leaf down to the concrete art center. Get this: they thought that the leaf I had done in the natural colors would sell much better than the brightly colored one. Obviously, they have not visited L and L gardens. They would have given me only about 12$ for the rhubarb leaf, and only about 30$ for the gunnera. No way. Totally not worth my time. I took them down to Vassey nursery and showed them to the woman there and she really like them and thought the bright colors would be very popular. Totally different market.
