Candy is Dandy - award winning OOAK polymer clay sculpture

Description

Why walk when you can ride? Especially when there's candy to be enjoyed; such confections deserve one's full attention.

This sculpture is OOAK (one of a kind); there will never be another like it! It is hand-sculpted from a strong polymer clay, and hand-painted with acrylics. The candies were made from translucent and colored clays. The mount (which is part Dragon Snail, part lump) sports a beard of green-dyed deer hide. His eyes were handmade by me. The reins and saddle pad are leather, and a real pebble is tied to the back of the stick with hemp cord.

7 inches high (5 inches to top of rider's head), 10.5 inches long (mount alone is 8 inches long). The rider is less than 2 inches high from bum to cap.

Candy is Dandy won a merit award in the 2009 Sculpture Exhibition sponsored by the Santa Clara Cultural Advisory Commission in cooperation with the Triton Museum of Art.

This sculpture should be displayed away from dust and direct sunlight.

*** SHIPPING costs vary widely, even within the U.S. It can cost over $35 for a box of this size and weight (and in some cases, Express Mail is cheaper than Priority!). The most I will charge is $30 ($40 outside the U.S.); I will pay the difference if it is more. Buyers on the west coast might expect to pay as little as $11 in some areas. I will refund the difference if the shipping cost (including insurance) is more than $1 less than $30 (or $40 outside the U.S.).

In some cases my shipping charges may seem excessive, but in fact I usually end up paying more for shipping than I charge the buyer. Sculptures can be fragile, so I pack them very carefully and often double-box them to protect them from rough handling by the post office. I would rather pay a bit more for shipping than go the cheap way and risk breakage.

Eirewolf Creations is a proud partner with World Vision in building a better world for children. $50 (fifty dollars) from the purchase of Candy is Dandy will be donated to World Vision (WorldVision.org).
