Description “When an Angel, falls from Grace …”

This turned out totally opposite as what I intended it to be. It was conceived as a Being of Light … something that would have come out of Lothlorien. But it wasn’t to be. IT, wanted to be dark. It made me make it go darker and darker and darker. I wonder why. I wonder who broke it, that now it no longer has any goodness left within. But, perhaps there is, deep within its soul. Though it was left so broken, that goodness could never surface again. Not unlike what Sauron did to the Elves, who became the Uruk-hai(s).

And so the Angel has fallen …

This mixed media journal was constructed mostly with clay, decorators’ caulk and paint. Other elements to the assemblage are galvanized metal and hardware rusted organically, old clock gears, a silver filigree and a Zebra Jasper.

Amazing piece! Love the textures and details!! I just noticed that you seem to have painted the actual page block, did you use ink or paint? This gave me ideas! Thank you!

When I first saw the cover my first impression was that it was an eye staring out at you. Well done.

thank you very much ... i thought so too ... tho different but the concept reminded me of Sauron. (who is in fact a fallen angel himself in some sense)

Hey !

Your creation is really beautiful !
I have one question : Isn't the book too heavy ? Because I saw that you used argile to do this, and argile is pretty heavy, isn't it ?

LuthienThye In reply to deedee-fruits [2012-09-04 03:56:11 +0000 UTC]

what is argile?
the book is quite light actually.

deedee-fruits In reply to LuthienThye [2012-09-04 17:39:31 +0000 UTC]

Oh sorry, french xD Argile is clay !

Actually, I have an art folder to do for my exams, and I would like to introduce it like the way you do. Could you explain me step by step how you do your work please ? It would be very nice !

If you do not have the time, do not worry, I understand. Thank you !

Aaahh clay yes, i use clay. but the type i use is very light.
as to your request, it is really difficult for me now to do a step by step. but i can certainly share with you the mediums that can be used to create this.

the clay i use is a 2-part epoxy clay. the brand is Apoxie Sculpt. go to avesstudio.com and you can buy it there. i like to use white becos i can paint it after, or age it with acrylics. having said that, i do not use this clay for the whole of the surface. for the background, i use something called decorator's caulk. it comes in a tube and you need a gun to use it. you can get these from any hardware store. just make sure you buy the paintable acrylic ones and not the silicone ones. you cannot paint on the silicone ones. take a look at this entry in my blog, you'll be able to see the caulk gun : [link]

Maybe it's the way the jasper looks like a cats-eye. An evil cats-eye.

LuthienThye In reply to randomsketchfactory [2012-07-29 14:11:41 +0000 UTC]

could be. tho it's not really evil i feel, just dark. like the angel's being broken and can't return to the light.
