Starting with this Monday, I FINALLY got a bunch of Monsters into the shop! Although, if you have been following me on social media, you may have noticed my spamming your feeds promoting my monstrosities...(Sorry, not sorry) but I thought I would take the opportunity to summarize what little creatures are for sale in my Etsy Shop.
You may notice that many of these creatures are "Thumbeasts." I came up with this species on my own as my original creation. They are simple "pinch-pots" that I can come up with quickly and be the main body of the stock available in the shop as well as be a trademark of the products I have available. Thumbeast refers to how many of these are not much bigger than many people's thumbs and were created mostly by molding the polymer clay with just my fingertips.
I have a pretty cool monster planned for this coming Monday as well as many more I have ready to glaze and go into the shop. I plan on creating an abundance of these little guys for as long as my Sculpey supply will hold up and for the rest of the month of January. This way, I have a good body of work to get started and have an abundance of ideas that I plan on continuing with sparatically. I would like to see how these sell before adding too many more and purchasing more clay as well.
There are some awesome ideas I have in mind for February. I have some Monster Valentine's ideas planned and am using that month to focus on Illustration to get a good leg up on that category of the shop.
Thank you all for the awesome feedback and support as these monsters have only been in the shop for a few days. Hopefully I sell something soon, but I'm really happy to have rediscovered a style of art that I've loved for so long and worked with as a young girl. Pictured below are the monsters that are currently in the shop. I have many more that need to be glazed and photographed, so stay tuned for everything!
