Kentucky Originals are hand-sculpted polymer clay figurines. My collectibles include a wide variety of whimsical characters such as snowmen, gingerbread men, ghosts, scarecrows & angels & an assortment of insects, household pets, domesticated farm or barnyard animals & wild animals mammals, fish, birds, reptiles & amphibians. You might find some figures accessorized with sculpted items of things ‘occurring in nature’, like tree stumps, rocks, flowers, fruit or leaves & others with ‘man-made’ items like tea cups, cookies, candy, buckets, brooms, fences, hats, dresses or even swim gear! I sometimes use paint to decorate or add to the figure or props. Each one of my collectibles is a one-of-a-kind figurine with its own personality, whim & expression. While these miniature sculptures look cute sitting on a shelf or as an ornament hanging on a Christmas tree, many customers use my collectibles as Cake Toppers as well. in my sculpting techniques, I do not use any molds for my characters, but rather use pins & needles, making each figurine truly unique. My ideas for & design of each piece come together as I sculpt. Though I may try or want to repeat a particular figurine, it is not quite possible to capture the same expression from one to the next. This does make it difficult to part with many of my little critters. But, I enjoy selling my figurines & hope to share some smiles with others. This friendly Beaver is sitting on a rock & holding a shiny red apple. He has a collection of red & green apples beside him which he has gathered in a wooden bucket. A tiny social little Ladybug has joined him & is crawling on the side of the bucket. This piece is 1 3/4 inches tall, 2 3/4 inches wide & 2 inches deep. The entire piece is made of clay, even the eyes which I gloss to give them a reflective look. Thanks for spending some time at my shop!
