Thanks for asking Warren! You encourage me to create a sister piece in an edition, which has been on my mind. This is two views of a single piece, which found a home, but there are variations in my head! It'll take a little while, but I'll announce here & at forestrogers.com

One of my takes on the Morrigan. She says, "Never give up."

I think my artistic role model from here on out may be the orchestra on the deck of the Titanic.

There -- just posted the whole piece, three views, in a new post!

Octopoid Descending, three views... Three views. She was a wonderful commission for Illuxcon, IX. In Kato Polyclay, 43 inches.

Thanks! I do love working on undersea subjects, or airy subjects for just that reason, that one can work for a fluid quality. Yes, there's an extensive skeleton! Wire & brass. She's in Kato Polyclay, much stronger than the Sculpey clays for thin elements like tentacles & just slightly flexible. :)

Bitter days.

Forest Rogers @forestrogers.bsky.social · Mar 15

Thanks! This was about 43" in all, but this is a small detail... I'll post the rest soon. She has long tentacles. Her head itself measured about 2.5 inches as I recall, which will give an idea.
