Friday Favorite--Robots Are Awesome by HerArt SheLoves

I'm back with another Friday Favorite.  This time I am featuring a fellow member of the Polymer Clay Enthusiasts Team on etsy, Robots Are Awesome by HerArt SheLoves.  (There is no mention of her 'real' name on her site, so HerArt it is!)

HerArt is a self-proclaimed Uber Nerd who loves all manner of science fiction.  She has combined her love of geekery with her love of sculpting and created these adorable robots from polymer clay and coiled wire.  Personally, I've never been a huge fan of geekery UNTIL I saw these robots.  I think they are wonderful! 

Here are a few of my favorites from her shop:

Patina Paxe

 

Blue Red Fred

 

Rustic Robot Wedding

 

Valentine Cupid Robot Cabe

 

Cheerful Bot Wall Art

 

And don't forget the Robot pets!

 

Mini Mack the Robot Cat

 

HerArt does custom work like wedding cake toppers, birthday bots, pets,  you name it.  If you have an idea for a robot, drop her a line and see what she can do.  I hope you will visit her etsy shop and have a look around!

Have a great weekend!

Friday Favorite--Leuckit

I am forever fascinated by people's creativity.  Especially when an artist takes everyday items and what seems to be 'junk' and turns them into something wonderful.  Case in point:  Leuckit.

Donna Provo Leuck uses kitchen utensils, old flashlights, candy molds, tin boxes--whatever she can find--and turns these common objects into clever sculptures.  It's recycling at its best---or upcycling, if you prefer.  I think her sculptures are fun and whimsical, and I'm pleased to share them with you today.  I've chosen five of my favorites to showcase here, but I hope you will check out her shop to see the rest of her clever creations.

Baby Stole My Heart

 

Wanna Race?

 

A Penny for Your Thoughts

 

Walking the Dog

 

And in the spirit of Halloween:

 

Skeleton

 

 

Now head on over to Leuckit and check out the rest of Donna's robots.  Be sure to read her profile as well.  Her story is inspiring!

 

Have a great weekend!

PS--I'm exhibiting at the Mid-America Center in Council Bluffs, Iowa, this weekend.  If you are in the Omaha/Council Bluffs area, stop in and say HI!  It's a great show, with lots of wonderful artists and craftspeople.
