I had just gone through a lot in the past few months and, I am struggling to find a closure.
I felt confused because I have hurt my heart but also felt that I did what I did to heal my soul.
But, I came into the realization that life goes on. It matters that I advocate for me and I do whatever makes me happy.
After this day, I will not cry again. I will walk without looking back. I will start replaying whatever happened to me and focus on everything that is infront of me.
Do not feel sad. I think I felt better and whole- though I am still hurting. I believe that a lot of opportunities were opened for me. I have never enjoyed life as I did today. I felt free. But I also need to heal.
I started by making the leaf.
I used a piece of matchstick to make the detail of the leaf and use the remaining pieces to make the base. I would have preferred to use my other pieces of clay but as you can observe, this clay is already hardening. I want to utilize it as much as I can.
I added a bit of a detail at the bottom to create some effect.
This is how I made the character.
My initial plan was for the bear to stand. But I made a bigger character and, I am in no mood to downsize. So I just sat it down like this.
Then I went outside to create the water effect. The sun is shining so, I did not even use my UV light.
Here's another look on the finished piece.
